Good rainy Monday morning my stamping friends, Happy March!! How was everyone’s weekend? It was and still is a bit rainy here, most of our snow has disappeared except for a few piles. It’s suppose to be a little warmer here this week so I’m sure it will all be gone before the end of the week.

Tomorrow is the day a lot of you have been waiting for. The new Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Bouquet will be available to order. Don’t forget the DSP’s are while supplies last. For my card today I used the Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Brilliance Bundle. Here’s my card for today.

My design is from Freshly Made Sketches #474.

My colors are from CAS on Friday Challenge #199.

I started by stamping the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Enjoy The Moment Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Butterfly Bijou Designer Series Paper card front. I adhered the card front to a panel of Bermuda Bay cardstock (to give a little more stability). I wrapped a piece of 1/2″ White Faux Linen Ribbon from the Flowers for Every Season Ribbon Combo Pack around the card front and adhered it in the back using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the card front to a Bermuda Bay card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the butterfly from the Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Brilliance Cling Stamp in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I cut the butterfly out using the Brilliant Wings Dies and colored the image in using my Calypso Coral Stampin’ Blends Markers.

I curved the butterfly wings using my Bone Folder and adhered the butterfly to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Friends Are Like Seashells Photopolymer Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink in the center of a Basic White panel. I stamped the butterfly image from the Butterfly Brilliance stamp in Tuxedo Black Ink on the side of the panel and colored it in using my Calypso Coral Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basie White panel to a Calypso Coral mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Bermuda Bay card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped a butterfly from the Butterfly Brilliance stamp in Tuxedo Black Ink on the front or the envelope and colored it in using my Calypso Coral Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of Butterfly Bijou DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!
