Today, I have a card to share that I made for the Fusion #4 Challenge:
I was totally inspired by the colourful butterflies on the pink background
with the white leaves around the edges.
I don't have any butterfly stamps,
so I decided to get creative and use my Wplus9 Fanciful Feathers stamps
to make a butterfly.
I stamped the same feather four times, masking off the middle.
Then, I fussy cut it out by hand.
For my background, I stamped some PTI Turning a New Leaf leaves around the edges
of my sweet blush cardstock and heat embossed them in white.
The sentiment is also from Fanciful Feathers -- I just love this font!
I'm linking this card up to Wplus9's Birthday Celebration Week 3: Trend Watch,
because I used a hand lettering sentiment stamp & some enamel dots.
Thanks for looking!

Darn clever! It's so satisfying to get multiple uses out of a stamp, and you've gone way above and beyond with your feathers, Leigh! Just love this. Really pretty card. Bev
Brilliant use of the feather stamp for butterfly wings Leigh! I love those enamel dots too for the butterfly body.
This is amazing, how do you come up with such brilliant ideas?! The card is amazing and love the use of the soft, pretty colours.

Leigh, you are so clever! I would never have thought of making a butterfly out of feathers! Fabulous!
This was not easy but of course you made it look so "obvious" and I love your card Leigh!

Gorgeous, and great way to improvise. I'm surprised you don't have any butterflies, but now you see you don't even need them.
What a fun way to stamp a butterfly with feathers. Great job. Thanks for playing along with us in the Fusion card challenge and hope to see you again ;-) Hugs, Betty
