Kylie's International Blog Hop - March 2021

This card didn't make the Stamp Camp tutorial, but I really enjoyed creating it. 

I was playing with the Butterfly Brilliance Bundle for a Butterfly Bouquet Stamp Camp I am hosting with my friends this month. I just thought it was a little too time consuming to be part it.

I went a little crazy with the Artistry Blooms Adhesive-Backed Sequins!

The Basic White layer has been embossed with the Painted Texture embossing folder and then I flicked some Mango Melody Stampin' Write Markers.

Looking at it now, I'm sure some black flickers would look great on it too!

How I made the butterfly:

Step 1

Put Adhesive Sheets on all 3 pieces of cardstock of these colours: Basic Black, Mango Melody and Pumpkin Pie.

Step 2

Run all 3 colours through the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine with the detailed die from the Brilliant Wings Dies

Step 3

Use your Take-Your-Pick Tool to pick apart all the little pieces of the butterfly and try your best to keep them within the die-cut of each colour.

Step 4

Die-cut the same butterfly shadow out of Vellum Cardstock

Step 5

Glue Basic Black detailed die-cut to the Vellum outline.

Step 6

Add all the little pieces to fill in the Basic Black butterfly, just like putting together a puzzle.

On top of all those sequins, I added a few Matte Black Dots. 

The sentiment is from the 'Les Bons Mots' dies (Well Said Dies). I was debating adding some Wink of Stella to it, but opted not too. 

I really wanted the butterfly to be the focal point.

I glued everything together on a Basic Black layer and then added it all on a Basic White card base.
