Today I am sharing the trio of cards made by the ladies who came to the Butterfly January classes this week. The class was designed around the Butterfly Gala Stamp set and co-ordinating Butterfly Duet Punch and was inspired by a card I made for the Inspire Create #032 challenge on the 4th December 2018. I also wanted to give each lady a 6” by 6” sample pack of the gorgeous Botanical Butterfly dsp to use in class and to take the remainder home to add to their stash.

Emboss Resist Technique

The first card we made was the card I designed for the Inspire, Create Challenge involving embossing and adding ink using sponge brayers, such a fun technique. As I have already blogged about this card please follow this link for all the details –
A Little Note card
We started with a Lemon Lime Twist card base, each lady then chose a piece of dsp from their sample pack, cutting it to 5⅝” by 3⅞”. The upper right corner of both the card base and the dsp were rounded using the Detailed trio Punch and the dsp added to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

We stamped a sentiment in Lemon Lime twist ink onto a panel of Whisper White measuring 4⅛” by 2¾”, rounded the upper right corner before adding the panel to a layer of Highland Heather 4⅜” by 3”. This panel was then added to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Lastly the ladies selected a large and a small butterfly from the dsp and punched them out using the Butterfly Bouquet Punch. The butterflies were added using Mini Glue Dots and the card was finished with a scattering of Basic Rhinestones.
Butterfly Birthday card
We started the final card by choosing a piece of dsp and laying it, offset onto the front of a Thick Whisper White card base. I then lifted the corner and applied Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive underneath before trimming away the excess dsp and adhering the rest of the panel. Some of the ladies found it easier to draw around the dsp making it easier to trim off the excess.

We stamped a sentiment in Highland Heather ink. Next we punched out 1 large and 3 small butterflies adding them to the card front using Mini Glue Dots and finishing with a scattering of Basic Rhinestones.
I hope you like these cards.
