Butterflies in Chinese culture symbolizes love, beauty, and good luck. When you see Chinese paintings, you will most likely see butterflies in it. I am lucky to live in California where I see butterflies all the time. I love butterfly stamps and this set from Blank Page Muse called Butterfly Breezes Clear Stamp Set is so beautiful! It comes with three butterflies, a large sunflower, and a sentiment! I used two of the butterflies on my slimline card, the sentiment, and the sunflower three times.
