Copic Coloring Combos for Stamped Butterflies

Butterflies are ideal this time of year to add to your handmade cards. Include them hovering around garden scenes and dancing by floral bouquets or any place you want to add some movement and a pop of color. But what color should they be? Well, butterflies come in a variety of color combos in nature or you can use your own fantasy colors to match your design. Christina is sharing 6 of her favorite Copic Marker combinations for coloring in stamped butterflies from soft and pastel to rich and deep, to add a beautiful touch to any card. I love the little Lawn Fawn stamp from the “I Like Butterflies” set she used, such a cute little fluttery guy!

Visit the Christy Gets Crafty blog to watch her video tutorial.
