I so love Butterflies with Crafter's Companion

 

 Well my new passion is butterflies.  When my son Will was alive I adored bees.  They are one of those things in nature that just can't be explained and yet they are a miracle of God...so that became Will's little mascot the honey bee.  Now that he has transformed and is made whole again in heaven, butterflies have become something that remind me of him.  Oh I bet there are butterflies all over heaven like we have never seen. 

 

This is a card I created for Crafter's Companion and I love the butterflies throughout but I was able to make it extra special and sparkle with the Spectrum Noir Sparkle Pens....YUM!!!!

 

I love the butterfly and the way he is going to take flight and just flitter off the card....

 

 

Need a tip?  Don't be afraid to blend your colors with the Spectrum Noir Sparkles.  You can use a stamp block to blend the colors.  It makes for a perfect little palette.

The Sparkle is POPPING out with Crafter's Companion

 

If you didn't know, Poppies are my favorite flower.  They are just stunning with their red and pop of black....What a beautiful creation of God.  This stamp set is one that lends itself to being a poppy or any other flower depending on how you color it...great versatility. 

 

I cut along the stamped line and curled my petals up just a bit to add some dimension.  Of course I had to add it to the card with some foam tape, because foam tape makes everything better, LOL.

Let Crafter's Companion Inspire You

 

 It's so lovely to be able to sit down with some colorful pens and plan papers and be able to create a beautiful card, such as this.  I love the scene I was able to achieve stamping and coloring in with the Spectrum Sparkle and Spectrum Aqua markers.  It really did inspire me.  Have you been able to check out Crafter's Companion's new sparkle pens?  I'd love to hear what you think?

A Little Bird Told Me with Crafter's Companion

The new Spectrum Noir Sparkles are really fun to use.  You can use them as straight markers but did you know you could also use them like watercolors....now that's some fun.  This little blue bird is sparkling away though I'm afraid it's really hard to capture with my camera...but trust me, he is.
Gotta love those Crafter's Companion goodies.  You can always find a complete list of products used on this project below along with the link to the Crafter's Companion site. 

 

I hope you have a wonderful crafty weekend and if your at CHA....HAVE A BLAST AND WISH I WAS THERE.
