Saying Goodbye to "Butterfly Basics" and Butterfly Big Shot Dies from StampinUP!

I cased this card from Bonnie O.

The white ferns were embossed with white powder.

The Butterfly Basics Stamp Set has always been one of my favorites.

It is retiring soon, as well as the "Butterflies Thinlits" and

the "Bold Butterfly Framelits" (I used both on this card).

 

Color Combo:  Retiring- Chocolate Chip & Soft Sky

I also used White, Garden Green & Island Indigo

Butterfly Basics and Kinda Eclectic

The first card pic below shows a recent class project I did.  The "Butterfly Basics" stamp set was used along with these Colors:  Soft Sky, Tip Top Taupe, Watermelon Wonder, and White.  In the center of the die cut butterfly I used a "Metal Rimmed Pearl".

The 2nd card was a Convention card swap- artist unknown.  Color Scheme:  Mossy Meadow, Pumpkin Pie, Elegant Eggplant and White.  "Kinda Eclectic" was the stamp set used along with the 2 butterfly punches (Bitty Butterfly and Elegant Butterfly).

Thanks for stopping by.....now go stamp something! (smile)  Lori
