Would you believe that I still had some scraps left from the digital Summer Posies paper? They were so soft and pretty that I didn't want to waste them. Tonight I paired them with the newly-released Just Rite Stampers Tiny Words set to make an encouragement card for a lady who can't get out much these days.
I stamped the image in Rich Cocoa Memento ink and die-cut it with my Spellbinders Nestabilities, then airbrushed it with a YG13 Copic marker while it was still in the die. Pink cardstock is PaperTrey Ink Sweet Blush, and green cardstock is SU's Kiwi Kiss. Buttons and ribbon are both PaperTrey as well--Sweet Blush. The rhinestones are Micro Dot Twinkle Stickers. I used a Martha Stewart Embossing Scalloping punch for the right side of the floral strip, and then sanded edges before sewing a couple of seams.
The butterfly is colored with R30 and R32 Copic markers, then enhanced with a pink Spica Glitter pen. I used the Melon Spica around the perimeter of the image as well as on the body of the little butterfly. I'm almost out of these printed paper scraps--really! (I might get one or two more cards if I stretch it.)
Now if you've read this far, I have a giveaway; I'm trying to be very careful how much stuff I move back into my almost-finished studio! (Yes, I'll post pictures soon. We have four more cabinet doors to finish.) I ran across a couple of extra Just Rite items as I was putting things away. One is a newly-released Favorite Occasions set that fits a 1-5/8" round stamper. And just in case you don't have a 1-5/8" round wooden stamper, I also have a Pink Sonnet Stamper (retired, but brand new) that the Favorite Occasions set will work with.
I'll do the Random Number Generator to choose a recipient; please leave only one comment per person. I will close this post at 10pm, CST on Saturday night, April 25. Hmmmm--why don't you tell me which stamp you like best in the Favorite Occasions set? It is pictured below:

P.S. I keep getting questions on bow-tying. Honestly, it's not me; it's the bow-tying pegs on that Crafter's Companion tool. I can tie a bow, but when I tie a bow, one tail is invariably on top of a loop. Any time you see both tails behind the loops on this blog, I either (a) fiddled with it for half an hour, or (b) used pegs to tie the bow. I am not associated with this product--just giving credit where it is due.
