This is a sweet card I made for a friend who has been going through a difficult time lately; I just wanted her to know that I was thinking of her. I made it using some of the gorgeous Delightfully Detailed dsp and the Butterfly Gala stamp set.

Making the card

I started by cutting out a piece of the gorgeous Delightfully Detailed dsp using my Paper Trimmer. I added this piece to a slightly larger panel of Pool Party cardstock.

I stamped some of the pretty butterflies from the Butterfly Gala stamp set in Gorgeous Grape ink onto some scrap Whisper White cardstock and punched the butterflies out using the Butterfly Duet Punch. I coloured the butterflies in using the Highland Heather and Pool Party Markers. I added the butterflies to the panel with Mini Glue dots and added some Basic Rhinestones,

I added the whole piece to a Gorgeous Grape card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. The sentiment from the same stamp set was stamped in Gorgeous Grape ink onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock ½” wide and trimmed it to size before adding it to the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

This dsp is so pretty and goes so well with this stamp set. I hope you like the card.

Today I have been using the butterfly from the Springtime Impressions dies and the Abstract Impressions stamp set to create a colourful card.

I started by using my Big Shot and Whisper White cardstock to die cut the gorgeous detailed butterfly from the Springtime Impressions dies set. For the background I wanted a colourful, spotty effect and after trying various ideas I settled on inking a single flower from the group of small solid flowers and stamping it repeatedly in multiple colours. I used a panel of Whisper White cardstock measuring 5⅜” by 3⅝” and stamped using 1^st and 2^nd generation Berry Burst, Coastal Cabana, Gorgeous Grape and Petal Pink inks to achieve the look I was after.

After stamping I wrapped a length of Berry Burst ⅜” Metallic Edged Ribbon around the panel securing on the back with Sellotape. I added a 5” by ⅜” strip of Coastal Cabana cardstock to bring another texture to the card front and flagged the end. The whole stamped panel was layered onto a 5½” by 3¾” piece of Berry Burst cardstock using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

The butterfly was then added to the card front using Mini Glue Dots and the panel layered onto a Thick Whisper White card base with Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added some Glitter Enamel Dots to the butterfly body as a final touch. Such a pretty card, I hope you like it.
