Waterfall butterflies

Just fluttering by with my first ever waterfall card. They always look so complex, but in fact are a lot easier than they look. I thought the panels looked a bit like wings, which inspired the butterflies.

I used a tutorial from Splitcoast Stampers and also looked at some youtube videos.

Stamped butterflies: R&R Pocock Ltd
Coloured with Copics
EF: Craft Concepts
Stash items: two tones of yellow card, eyelets, Wink of Stella, ribbon

Thanks

I am a silver haired wife, mother of four, and nonna of eight.. I come from a long line of crafters, both men and women. I love working with paper and fabric, so on my blog you will see both aspects of my work. I don't seem to have a specific style (too easily distracted) but I do like to get inky with stamps and colour! I hope you will enjoy the variety, and maybe be inspired to try something for yourself. Thanks for looking at my blog. It would be great if you left a message as I always appreciate your comments. Please respect my creativity and use only for personal inspiration. Please do not use my work or publish without my consent. Thank you, Carol.
