A sweet butterfly themed thank you card made using the Floating and Fluttering stamp set and Fluttering dies.

Colours used in this card are:

To recreate the Floating and Fluttering card, you will need:

Highland Heather card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Pool Party – 5¼” by 3½” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White – 5” by 3¼” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White – 4” by 3¼”

I started by using a Blending Brush to apply some Pool Party ink to the 5¼” by 3½” panel of Basic White and added some Pool Party speckles using a stamp from the Sweet Ice Cream stamp set.

The sentiment stamp from the Art Gallery stamp set was stamped in Gorgeous Grape ink. The whole panel was added to the Pool Party Layer using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

The large butterfly image was stuck on the plate of my Stamparatus. I inked it up with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and stamped onto the smallest piece of Basic White card. I like to use the Stamparatus so that I can stamp the image multiple times to get a really dark impression.

I used the infill stamps to add colour. Largest butterfly in Blushing Bride ink, the smallest butterfly in Highland Heather ink, the medium butterfly in So Saffron ink. All the foliage was stamped in Pear Pizzazz ink.

The stamped and coloured image was die cut using the Fluttering dies and the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine.

The die cut image was added on Dimensionals to the card front. I added a trio of Pastel Pearls to complete the card.

A simple and pretty card.
