Yesterday started the previews of the latest collection over at Clear and Simple Stamps. This release is full of so many amazing new stamp sets, die cuts, and other new products you will not want to miss it!

Today, I'm showcasing Butterfly 1 die-cuts and the coordinating Butterfly Garden 1 stamp set.

I had pinned this fabulous layout many weeks back, and my mind immediately went to it when I saw these coordinating sets.



I tried to simplify my version a bit but keep the idea and feeling the same. I hope that comes across here!

I die-cut just over 20 of the butterflies in different sizes and shades of orange cardstock. Then played around with the arrangement until I was happy with it. The photo was one I took from our trip to the Biltmore back in 2008.



Instead of adorning all of the butterflies with gems or stamping, I let one shine and used a stamp from the coordinating Butterfly Garden 1 set on her. I also double-layered the die-cut for even more dimension and pop.

Be sure to check out what everyone else is previewing today!
