Today's card is one I made for a fellow Stampin' Up! demonstrator for her birthday. To make the butterfly, I cut strips of Love Letter Designer Series Paper, and adhered them vertically to a small piece of cardstock. I then used the Beautiful Butterflies die to cut out the butterfly - and how cool does it look?? I'm really pleased with the result. The Riding Hood Red butterfly beneath it has been embossed using my Elegant Lines embossing folder; it doesn't show up in the photo, but adds some nice texture to the card.
Stamps: Sincere Salutations, Very Vintage jumbo stampin' around wheel
Card: Crumb Cake, Basic Black, Riding Hood Red
DSP: Love Letter Designer Series Paper
Ink: Crumb Cake and Basic Black stampin' pads
Other: Beautiful Butterflies Bigz die, Neutrals brads, sponge dauber, Elegant Lines embossing folder, Scallop Edge border punch, Stamp-a-ma-jig
This is gorgeous! Love how you've done the butterfly - very clever!
