Butterfly Kisses

Hello there my crafty friends, It's Saturday again, YAY,
This post is scheduled because I'm off travelling but only for a week,  I'll be back very soon:0)

Over at the Craft Barn we've been using Butterfly Kisses stamps and all this week has been a special offer on the stamps, 10% off, just use the code BKSTAMPS in the offer code box as you go through check out.

 This card was coloured with distress inks and mica powder added to the centre of the flowers
 I used the Roses stamps
Here I tried to make it 'blousey' loose and indistinct, the Cosmic shimmers lend themselves to this method , I think. They shine and shimmer in the right light. I hope you like my cards and don't forget to visit the Craft Barn to use the 10% off Butterfly Kisses stamps.
