Inlaid Butterfly card

Here is an inlaid butterfly card made using the pretty Brilliant Wings Dies and the gorgeous Expressions in Ink Designer Series Paper.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the inlaid butterfly card, you will need:

Thick Basic White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Expressions in Ink dsp – 5⅞” by 4⅓
Basic White card – 5⅞” by 3⅜”
Magenta Madness card – 5⅞” by ½”

The butterflies were die cut from the panel of Basic White using the Brilliant Wings Dies and my Cut & Emboss Machine. I set the die cut butterflies aside and ran the negative white panel back through the Cut & Emboss Machine with the Bricks & Mortar Embossing Folder.

The strip of Magenta Madness was added to the embossed panel using liquid glue and then the panel was glued to the piece of Expressions in Ink designer series paper.

I wrapped a length of white Baker’s Twine from the Essentials Twine pack around the panel and tied it in a bow. The whole piece was then glued to the card front with liquid glue.

Mini Glue Dots were used to add each of the butterflies to the negative spaces, adhering only the body down, allowing the wings to rise.

An all occasion card made using the Enjoy the Moment stamp set and Brick & Mortar embossing folder by Stampin' Up!

Brick & Mortar

Today I am sharing a pretty, muted card made using scraps I had kicking around on my desk, the Enjoy the Moment Embossing Folder and the Enjoy the Moment stamp set.

Colour combo for todays project is:

To recreate the Brick & Mortar card, you will need:

Gray Granite card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Basic Black – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper left corner
Soft Sea Foam – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper left corner
Gray Granite – 3¼” by 2¼”
Soft Sea Foam – 3” by 2”
Basic White – 3” by 2”
Basic White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper left corner – for the inside

I embossed the large Soft Sea Foam panel a while ago, using the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine and Brick & Mortar Embossing Folder, thinking to use it on another project. While I was tidying my desk……….. I found it and decided to use it.

I began by wrapping a length of Gray Granite Shimmer Ribbon around the embossed panel, adhering it on the back using Sellotape.

The embossed panel was then adhered to the Basic Black panel using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I used the same liquid adhesive to then add the panel to the Gray Granite card base.

Using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies I cut scalloped stitched rectangles from the smaller pieces of Gray Granite and Basic White card.

The sentiment was stamped in Gray Granite ink and the sweet chestnut clusters added to the panel in Soft Sea Foam ink. I added the panel of Soft Sea Foam card between the Basic White and Gray Granite scalloped rectangles and added the piece to the card base on Dimensionals.

To complete the card I added a bow made using the Gray Granite Shimmer Ribbon and a trio of Matte Black Dots.

I hope you like the card.
