Birthday Butterfly



I’m fairly certain I was inspired by a Pinterest find for this card.  Of course, I made it so long ago, that I can’t find the link (Insert sad face here).  But I just wanted to share this card anyway, I made this for a lovely friend and because I love butterflies, well it was the perfect card to make!
I used the Butterfly Basics & Gorgeous Grunge stamp sets for the background stamping, using Soft Suede and Melon Mambo inks.


I stamped the large Butterfly using the Swallowtail stamp also in Soft Suede Ink.  I love this stamp, so big but so versatile!


I have then cut a Butterfly from the Butterflies Thinlits from a Melon Mambo DSP (I think)!!  Add some pearls and the card was done!

I used:
Stamps: Butterfly Basics, Gorgeous Grunge & Swallowtail
Inks: memento Black, Melon Mambo & Soft Suede
Papers: Very Vanilla, Melon Mambo & Soft Suede CS, and DSP
Accessories: pearls
Big Shot: Butterfly Thinlits 


Coral & Butterflies



So today I wanted to share a few cards I made using the Butterfly Basics stamp set.  Yes I do love that stamp set, and oh, the coordinating dies too!
I made these cards a little while ago now and can’t remember (oops) the colour I used for the base.  Was it Calypso Coral, Tangelo Twist or ???  I’m going to go with Calypso Coral.  It’s a lovely colour and from the SU Subtles colour collection.

The first card uses the Large Polka Dot embossing folder for interest.  I've used a sprinkling of silver embossed dots (from the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set) for interest.  The focal image has the background leaves stamped with Crumb Cake and a little butterfly added.  So cute!


The second card  uses the Happy Heart embossing folder.  Gosh I love this embossing folder.  Doesn't matter which embossed side you use, it's gorgeous!!  Card inspiration from Pinterest.

Stamps: Butterfly Basics & Gorgeous Grunge
Inks: Calypso Coral, Crumb Cake,. Sahara Sand & Mememto Black
Papers: Whisper White & Calypso Coral CS
Accessories: Butterfly punch, gems, white twine
Big Shot: Happy Heart & Large Polka Dot Embossing Folder, Circle Framelits
