So in theory you would have thought that a challenge using a company that makes beautiful flower stamps I would have made sure I had a new one to use but I fancy the Hero Arts Butterfly Pair.

That means I had to work out what to use for flowers and I'm pleased to say I had a reason to use the new Simon Says Stamps Hydrangea Petals die and the smaller flowers are  Simon Says Stamps Mini Flowers and Leaves die.

For my leaves I used the Simon Says Stamp Look for the Miracles stamp set and used the leaves and carefully cut them out. The papers I used for the leaves are Lets Polka in a Meadow from Lawn Fawn simply because they were green and still on my desk from last week! The centres of my larger flowers are the Lawn Fawn Mini Snowflakes.

I used the Simon Says Stamp Stitched Rectangles dies and the butterflies are coloured with Prismacolor pencils. It was has I was used the die to cut them I realised that they didn't cut completely out but a crafty snip with scissors and some Hero Arts pearls soon hid the evidence.

So now it's YOUR turn.  Happy Crafting

Such a pretty card Debby and I love the layered stitched rectangles and the pretty pink layered behind, and the same colour pink for the flowers, and then the white embossed leaves to frame them. x
