Creating with Sketched Butterflies


I know I said I was over butterflies, but when I saw this new Sketched Butterfloies bundle (#163492) in the new Stampin'Up catalogue, I fell in love with it. The way they are designed, they truly look "sketched" with a pen, and they stamp out beautifully. For the first card I showed in my video, I used Lemon Lime Twist and Pool Party as my colour scheme. Cut your card base at 5 1/2" and score at 4 1/4". Cut your Pool Party panel at 5 1/4" x 4" and run through the die cut machine using the Dotted Circles 3D embossing folder (#163789). Using circle dies, I used Spotlight on Nature #163580, cut 2 seperate circles out of Lemon Lime Twist and Basic White. Stamp your sentiment n Basic White. Stamp your butterflies with Lemom Lime Twist ink (#147145) and die cut them. Now adhere all your elements to your card, layering the 2 circles slightly, and popping up 2 of the butterflies with dimensionals (#104430).

You can embellish with Dots For Days adhesive back dots for some extra "oomph". The second card I showed in my video uses designer series paper from the soft subtles collection (#163776). Choose 3 different patterns and cut one at 1" x 4 1/4", another at 1" x 4 1/4" and the last colour at 5/8" x 4 1/4". Cut Basic White at 4 1/2" x 3 1/4". Adhere the DSP strips to that Basic White piece. Cut a Thick White (159229) at 4 1/4" and score at 5 1/2" so it opens top wise. Adhere the panel to the card base with dimensionals. Stamp out 2 butterflies using Fresh Fresia ink (#155611) and die cut them. I used the Spotlight on Nature circle dies for my sentiment that I stamped with Smokey Slate ink (#147113) and the 1 3/4" punch (#119850) to cut a piece of Fresh Fresia and layered both circles. Adhere your elements to your card. I added Fresh Fresia dots from the Rainbow adhesive backed dots collection (#162758).
