2 versions of the "butterfly swash" technique

 

Stampers are so creative! I never would have thought of this. At our monthly gathering, two of my team members shared two different ways to do this cool technique they found on Pinterest last week. Thanks so much for sharing, Lynn and Tamie!

  Suggested Color Combination:

Blushing Bride

So Saffron

Whisper White

Soft Sky

Smoky Slate

Lynn's sweet gray and pastel version (above) starts with a die-cut butterfly, which is then tacked down onto a plain white cardfront and stamped directly over with your "swash" stamp.

Tamie's cheerful brights version (below) stamps the three swashes on the plain white card front first, then runs it through the Big Shot with the butterfly die-cut. This version requires a second piece of plain white to place behind it.

Suggested Color Combination:

Melon Mambo

Daffodil Delight

Whisper White

Tempting Turquoise
