Deb created a gorgeous card today using a lovely butterfly stamp by LaBlanche.  These beautiful butterflies sure bring thoughts, wishes and hopes for an early spring to mind.  I am so READY to see butterflies flittering around out there!

HOW gorgeous!  LOVE these colors, Deb!

Measured Butterflies by LaBlanche.  This is the stamp that Deb used today.

If you are not familiar with LaBlanche stamps, they are silicone stamps mounted on white foam.  They are fairly thick and very light in weight.  They stamp beautifully and the white silicone wipes clean very easily.  They are known for their high level of detailing.  They are a dream to work with.

All LaBlanche stamps in stock can be seen here.

As to coloring these detailed images, Deb used Copic markers on her butterflies today.

When Linda uses LaBlanche images, she prefers to color using the pen nibs and her Ranger Distress Inks.  A while back she created a video for us to show exactly how she does it — definitely worth a watch if you haven’t seen it before.

I hope you take the few minutes to watch.

Products Linda used to color her images:

LaBlanche Specialty Stamping Paper

Tim Holtz Distress Inks

Cut-n-Dry Pen Nibs

Hope you enjoyed Linda’s video and hope you are inspired to color up some of these beautiful LaBlanche images.
