Beautiful Butterflies

 Hi friends,

A beautiful butterfly card using the Beautiful Butterflies Bundle (#164615). Included in this bundle is the Beautiful Butterflies stamp set (#164608) and the Hybrid Embossing Folder (#164614). This hybrid folder consists of the Embossing Folder and dies which work together or separately, giving lots of  choices.





The largest of the butterfly dies is used to create a butterfly shaped card front. I cut the Blueberry Bushel card (#146991) 13.5cm x 18cm and scored along the longer side at 9cm. The die was placed on top of this card, lining the top straight piece of the die with the score line. This was then run through the Stampin’ Cut & Embossed machine (#149653). 


Once it is cut just trim the 2 sides at the score lines to remove the unwanted area around the butterfly.



I stamped the details of the wings from the Beautiful Butterflies stamp set onto this butterfly using VersaMark (#102283) giving a slightly darker tone to the card.

I then stamped the whole butterfly with VersaMark onto Azure Afternoon card (#161728) and added Black from the Basics Wow! Embossing Powder (#165679) and set this with the Heat Tool (#129056). This was cut with the co-ordinating die. This butterfly was attached to the butterfly card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430), just in the centre of the butterfly so you can lift the wings up. I added Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) for some glimmer to the top butterfly.

I matted a piece of Beautiful Bokeh Designer Series Paper (#164607) with Basic Black card (#121688) and attached it to the inside of the Blueberry Bushel card. “Celebrate” is cut with a Wanted To Say die (#161594) with Blueberry Bushel card backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) and this was attached to the DSP under the butterfly.

You could use this card as is, however I decided to add it to a Basic White card base (#159228) so I had more area for writing inside. The embellishments are from the Tinsel Gems Three-Pack (#161624).
