A Simple Butterfly Basics Birthday

Sometimes the cards that come together the fastest are my favorites.

I made this card in just a few minutes using only two colors – Coastal Cabana and and Basic Black.

The fern image is from the Butterfly Basics stamp set and the technique used here is called generational stamping. Ink up the stamp with black ink and stamp once. Without re-inking the stamp, stamp a second and third time to create the generations of color from light to dark.

A tag with a honeycomb background and “happy birthday” greeting was added to the card with dimensionals. Both of these images are also in the Butterfly Basics stamp set.

To complete the card, I added Coastal Cabana ribbon to the tag and knotted it three times at the end. This ribbon is included in the Best Year Ever Accessory Pack that also has Calypso Coral and Crushed Curry ribbons as well as coordinating buttons. This pack can be yours as a free Sale-a-bration choice with a $60 purchase.
