Thank you card

Don't you just love it when you find a piece of stamp art you created and forgot about, only to have it be the perfect centerpiece for a quickie card? My aunt loves orange and this was a terrific image to build from. The image was stamped with VersaMark ink, allowed to rest a moment, then dusted with several colors of chalk using a Q-tip. I used a white eraser to remove any unwanted chalk around the image. Kind of feels like a batik print. The stamps were from Stampin' Up. March 09

These are some thank you cards I just created with Spellbinders dies. The butterfly is from a set called Flying Beauties. I love how you can die cut, emboss and stencil with these dies. I highly recommend using Cut'NDry foam for blending your ink colors. They help to keep your Spellbinders dies a little cleaner (and your fingers too!)
