Hi there! Each day this week I will be sharing a new card using some awesome new Hero Arts stamps. I feel so blessed to get to work with such an amazing company and group of people. So this week I just wanted to have a little fun and create cards using some of my favorite stamps. To share the love I will also be doing a few giveaways throughout the week...starting with today! :)
So let's get on to today's card. I'm totally in love with the Zig Zag background stamp...and embossing it makes it that much more yummy. ;) The butterfly was stamped onto some watercolor paper and then colored with watercolor pencils. The rounded corners and faux white stitching added the perfect finishing touch to this card.
Just leave a comment on this post by Midnight CST on Sunday, January 22nd. I'll randomly draw a winner from all the comments and announce the winner next week.
