Delicate filigree butterfly by Stampin' Up! for an Anniversary card

Springtime Impressions Butterfly

Posted on by

Today I am sharing a card I made using the gorgeous new Springtime Impressions dies. You can purchase these in a bundle with the pretty Abstract Flowers stamp set with  10% discount but today I am only using the dies.

To Make the Card

Using my Stampin’ Trimmer I cut a panel of Petal Pink cardstock at 5⅜” by 3⅝”. This is one of our new colours and is such a soft and delicate colour. I placed the large detailed butterfly from the Springtime Impressions dies in the lower left hand corner and ran it through my Big Shot. I also ran a 4½” by 2½” piece of Vellum through the Big Shot with the same butterfly die.

I then inserted the upper right corner of the Petal Pink layer into the Lovely Floral Embossing Folder and ran it through the Big Shot. Love the delicate texture this gives to the card.

I stamped the sentiment from the Beautiful Bouquet Stamp Set in Calypso Coral ink in the lower right hand corner before mounting the panel onto a layer of Calypso Coral cardstock 5½” by 3¾” using Tombow Liquid Adhesive.

I adhered the centre of the Vellum butterfly into the negative space in the Petal Pink Layer using Mini Glue Dots and layered the Petal Pink butterfly on top. So pretty………

To finish off I added some of the Grapefruit Grove Faceted Dots to the butterfly body and stamped the butterfly from the Painted Glass stamp set on the inside of the card and on the envelope.

Framed Painted Harvest

Posted on by

I can’t seem to get enough of the fab Painted Harvest stamp set at the moment and have made a cute framed painted harvest card to share with you today.

I took a layer of Whisper White cardstock 5⅜” by 3⅝” and stamped the more solid flower image to the left of panel centre, using Pool Party ink. I added the second layer of stamping in Sweet Sugarplum ink on top, love this colour combo. The more filigree leaves were stamped using Smoky Slate ink. I had intended to stamp the flower centre in Smoky Slate as well but it appears that I hadn’t cleaned my block very well so it looks like the Crumb Cake ink I used on a previous project……..hate when that happens.

I took a scrap piece of Whisper White cardstock and die cut the largest square from the Stitched Shapes Framelits and the slightly smaller square from the Layering Squares dies to create a frame. This is so easy to do as the dies nestle together so well and it is easier to run them through the Big Shot together.

I added Foam Adhesive strips to the back of the frame and added it partially over the flower image and tipped over. The sentiment from the Beautiful Bouquet stamp set was added just below in Sweet Sugarplum ink.

I added the finished panel to a layer of Smoky Slate cardstock then to a Pool Party card base. I stamped the flower again on a panel of Whisper White cardstock 5⅜” by 3⅝” and added it to the inside of the card using Tombow. Loving all these soft colours together. Hope you like them too.
