Card #1

Smoky Slate Cardbase – 5 ½” x 8 ½” scored at 4 ¼”

Basic Gray Cardstock – 3 5/8” x 4 ¾” & 2 ½” x 3”

Basic White Cardstock – 5/8” x 3 ½”

Thanks & Beyond Dies

Masking Paper

Moody Mauve Ink Pad

Lost Lagoon Ink Pad

Moody Mauve Stampin’ Write Marker

Lost Lagoon Stampin’ Write Marker

Basic Gray Stampin’ Write Marker

Crumb Cake Stampin’ Write Marker

Iridescent Rhinestones

Basic Gray Ink Spot (kit)

Two Butterfly White Piece (kit)

 


1- Trim off the foil edge so you Two Butterfly piece is about 3 ½” x 4 5/8”

2- Create 3 masks with the Butterfly Die and Masking Paper. This won’t be a perfect fit, but that is okay. Add them over the Lost Lagoon & Beige Butterflies.


3- Stamp a Butterfly in Basic Gray above the Lost Lagoon, and a Moody Mauve below the Beige.


4- Remove the Masks and add more color to the three solid butterflies with Stampin Write Markers in Moody Mauve, Lost Lagoon, Basic Gray & Crumb Cake.

Only use the three colors that are not the solid color of the butterfly. You don’t need to fill in the entire butterfly leave a lot of white.


5- Add the Masks back to the butterflies. Stamp more butterflies around using a Stamp OFF – Stamp ON technique to create lighter colors. You can also use the Closed Wings Butterfly Stamp if you want. If you want to add another Beige Butterfly you can use Crumb Cake with the stamp off – stamp on technique.

Remove the maks.

6- Add some splatter if you want. I used Crumb Cake ink in just a couple places.


7- Remove the center section of the butterflies with the Label Die from the Thanks & Beyond Dies.


8- One the 2 ½” x 3” Basic Gray piece trace the outside edge of the Label Die used to cut out the center section. Cut along the traced line to get a slightly larger shape.


9- Add the butterfly center section over the Basic Gray shape. Add the butterfly background to the Basic Gray 3 5/8” x 4 ¾” piece. 

Add the center section over the opening with dimensionals. Add everything to the cardbase with dimensionals.


10- Stamp your greeting on the White strip in Basic Gray ink. Cut the ends to a fish tail shape. Add to the center of the label with dimensionals.

11- Add your choice of embellishment, I used the Iridescent Rhinestones because they are retiring and I love them!

 

 


I have also created a video walking you through each step.

Card #1

Thick Basic White Cardbase – 5 ½” x 8 ½” scored at 4 ¼”

Basic White Cardstock – 4” x 5 ¼” & 1” x 4”

Moody Mauve Ink Pad

Lost Lagoon Ink Pad

Blending Brushes

Basic Gray Ink Spot (kit)

White Cardbase (kit) – 1 ¼” x 4 ¼”

Lost Lagoon Cardbase (kit) – 1 ¼” x 4 ¼”

Gray Cardbase (kit) – 1 ¼” x 4 ¼”

Envelope Flap (kit) – leftover pieces

 


1- Add Moody Mauve ink to the White Cardbase strip with a blending brush.


2- Cut each of the 1 ¼” strips (White with Moody Mauve ink, Lost Lagoon & Gray) into 1 ¼” squares. You should get 3 from each strip.


3- Blend ink around all edges on each square. Use the coordinating ink, Moody Mauve, Lost Lagoon, & Basic Gray. This will give a uniform look to all pieces.


4- Add one of each color in a row to the top of the 4” x 5 ¼” Basic White cardstock. They can be squared or at an angle. You will want to add them in this order – Moody Mauve, Lost Lagoon, Gray.


5- Add the next row at the bottom in this order – Gray, Moody Mauve, Lost Lagoon.

6- Add the third row just above the bottom row leaving a gap between rows 1 & 2. The order is Lost Lagoon, Gray, Moody Mauve.


7- Stamp your greeting in Basic Gray on the 1” strip. Add in the gap with dimensionals. Add everything to the cardbase with dimensionals. You can use a darker cardbase if you want.


8- From the leftover Envelope scraps, cut out three butterflies. You can make a whole butterfly by combining the two butterflies I have circled in the picture together, see video for more details.


To combine them, glue the separate bodies together.


Let dry, then fussy cut out as one butterfly.


9- Add the butterflies in the Moody Mauve sections with dimensionals. If they have a straight edge, you can hide it under the greeting or along a straight edge.

April 2024 & Past Paper Pumpkin Greetings! - Stampin' Up! Paper Pumpkin Alternative Ideas

I love holding on to these stamp sets as the greetings & images can be used for so many occasions. The stamp I chose are: “enjoy your day” from April 2023 All The Little Things, and “thanks” from March 2022 Beyond the Horizon.
