Swallowtail

I'm preparing to do some Christmas tag making today with any luck, The Rayster has managed to do all our Christmas shopping so now it's just down to me to bag and tag it all.  Today you are going to get three for the price of one.  A card, gift tag and gift bag all using the swallow tail stamp.

First here's the card

Butterfly in flight, I Stamped out the swallowtail twice and embossed it with black embossing powder then coloured it using the stampin write markers.  I then stick them together so that I could get the 'in flight' motion.

Here's a closer look.

The grass is from the wetlands stamp set and I just stamped it along the bottom of the card making the grass slightly higher on either end.

Here's the matching gift bag

and here's the tag

I thought I'd seen this technique on you tube but I now can't find it for love nor money, if, dear reader you come across it please let me know so that I can credit it on here.

That's all for now
