It's day 4 of the Papertrey Ink April release countdown! Today is a group post day and we are all sharing projects created with the new Make it Market Mini Kit: Color Pop Butterflies.

All of the new stamp sets and products that I am sharing today will be available to purchase on April 15th, 10PM ET, at Papertrey Ink.

I can't say enough how much I am loving the new Color Pop kits. There are so many possibilities to create with what is included and I am so happy to see a butterfly version this month.

I used the stencils to create the background on this card along with an ink blending tool. The largest butterflies are Summer Sunrise inks and the smaller ones are Ocean Tides. There is a little bit of Ripe Avocado in there for the green leaves and Berry Sorbet for the flowers. All of the stencils are very easy to line up. with the card base and the other images on the card.

I used the stamps to add the details to the butterfly images and flowers. I am blown away by how lovely this turns out and how much it looks like printed paper you could purchase. It doesn't take that long to create and the result is stunning!

I sued the new Inspired: Faith set to add the sentiment on the bottom of the card layered on a bit of Sheer Basics vellum. The vellum helps the sentiment stand out, while still letting the butterfly background shine.

I took inspiration from my first card to create this next card. Instead of using the stencils, I die cut the butterfly bases from cardstock - Summer Sunrise for the larger butterfly and Ocean Tides for the small one. I used the stamps to add the details.

I die cut the "so happy" in white and then layered that onto some Sheer Basics vellum with the butterflies. It was very fun to arrange the butterflies flying across the card. One of my favorite pieces of the kit is the little notched banner piece that the "you make me" is stamped on. That was the perfect little piece to tuck behind the butterfly wing to complete the sentiment on the card.
