Butterfly Reflections, Ink

Hi, hello!  Norine here, back again with some floral cards to share with you.  I made 5 with one image from the Charmed stamp set by Altenew .   It wasn't my intention to make that many, (it never is) but I do like to stamp several in case one or two go straight south, then I still have some back ups.  But there were no oopsies this time, I kinda liked them all and couldn't eliminate any.

The card below was created using the red, orange-yellow and salmon pink pastel crayons.  The "thanks" sentiment is from the Deerest Friends set by Right At Home .

Here's a look at what I've created!! I stamped the leaves and coloured them with alcohol markers before fussy cutting them out.  I arranged them on my card base and stamped some other images directly onto the base, surrounding my leaves.  Of course, I didn't plan on a sentiment, which I never do, so it ended up being placed vertically.  I thought it was looking a l
