Oh! Yes, be careful what you ask for :0) Butterflies, Warning, Warning, picture heavy post. I've been a busy bunny and there are avoiding tactics going on here, I should be painting my ceiling:0)Okay this butterfly is from the Artylicious CD, Butterfly Bliss, printed first onto shiny card and then onto acetate.
The background is a stamp Aspects of Design, Nautical and the splatter stamp from, Mr Timmy Holtz himself .
Distressed with TH inks weathered wood and barn door and spun sugar.
I stamped and clear embossed the text then distressed. The butterfly is held on with Pinflair glue gel.
This is stamped with Hero Arts, Wild Delphinium using Marvy pens and Stickles . Butterfly Stamp by Tim Holtz onto acetate and coloured from behind with copics, small butterflies, MS punch using waste from first stamping. Sentiment Penny Black.
Trying to achieve a guy's card this time, (dunno what I do wrong, I just cannot get it quite right) Tim Holtz Pappillion stamps just stamped onto my favourite (ATM!)colour olive green:0)
I'm off, I've got a ceiling to paint. Have fun:0) xxx
I removed this from LIM because I used the same stamps as somebody else and she was first with them, only fair :0)

You leave me speechless! Awesome cards. My fave has to be Tim Holtz as actually managing to make a card for a male gets my vote every time, lol. Have fun with the decorating. Lynn x

Hi there again, just to say congratulations on being showcased at LIM. Well done! Lynn x
OMG I am just bowing at your feet, you have really licked this challenge, these cards are truly amazing. I love them all, but the first one is a stunner.
Linbyx
Hmm. Unless you're going for a Sistine Chapel look, painted a ceiling can be a bit tedious! Love these three cards MaC especially the second. Although the first is pretty spectacular too! Vx
That first card took my breath away!!!! Awesome.
Thanks for dropping by my blog.
cheers,

The colours and design of your first card are beautiful but your male card is absolutely fab-u-lous. xx
Such beautiful cards! They're all gorgeous but I think the 2nd one is my favourite (only just though!). Lisa x
Beautiful cards. Hard to say which is my favorite. The butterfly on the first is striking, your simple layout on the second is just lovely, and a masculine card with butterflies? I think that is brilliant!
Stunning cards, love the colour of the first but really couldn't choose a favourite!
Helen x
Such beautiful cards all of them, the first one is maybe my fav though today :O) Viv xx
Sat here trying to think of words to express how out of this world your cards are. All three are so fantastic and i would be so made up to receive any one of them. Hoping you have them earmarked for someone as they would really have a fantastic piece of art to hang in their home:-)
These are absolutely gorgeous! I really love that first one with the burst of colour.
Amazing cards, love them to bits
Wow! You really did some beautifully creative butterfly cards! I could not pick a favorite, although I am really partial to layered butterflies. Yours look like they could fly off the card!!
Well, I am playing catch-up and was scrolling down through your posts... this one took my breath away! What gorgeous cards, all of them, but that top one is what stopped me in my tracks. Gorgeous!!!!
