So Blessed

Here are a couple of my creations using Blessed, Close to my Heart's Stamp of the Month for April.  These are beautiful stamps to overlap, such as with the butterfly in this card:

The outline is stamped in Chocolate and the interior is stamped in Sweet Leaf.  The papers used are from the Miracle collection.  The card below uses the same technique for the flower.

You can get the stamp set and papers here.
