Good Friday afternoon stamping friends. I hope you are all having a great day and looking forward to the weekend.

I have a quick card for you today mixing up products coming in May and products available now. That’s one of the great things about Stampin’ Up! products, you can mix and match almost everything. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! All Aflutter Bundle along with the Delicate Dreams Specialty Designer Series Paper, Stampin’ Up! Delicate Whispers Stampp Set and the Everyday Arches Dies for my card today.

Adhere a panel of Delicate Dreams DSP to a Hydrangea Hue mat. Adhere the layered panel to the front of a Basic White Thick card base. Cut a panel of Basic White and Hydrangea Hue using the Everyday Arches Dies.

On the die cut panel of Basic White, stamp the floral image from the Delicate Whispers stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink. Color the image using Hydrangea Hue and Old Olive Stampin’ Blends Markers. Stamp the sentiment from the All Aflutter stamp set in Hydrangea Hue Ink on the bottom of the panel. Adhere the Basic White panel to the Hydrangea Hue mat. Stamp the detailed butterfly image from the All Aflutter stamp set on a panel of Basic White in Crumb Cake Ink. Stamp the solid butterfly image from All Aflutter stamp set in Crisp Cantaloupe Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, over the detailed image. Cut the butterflies out using the All Aflutter Punch.

Adhere the punched butterflies to the die cut panel with Stampin’ Dimensionals and Glue Dots on the cascading floral image. Adhere the layered die cut panel to the card front. Add a few 2026-2028 In-Color Butterflies (available May 5) to the card front.

Adhere a panel of Delicate Dreams DSP to a Hydrangea Hue mat. Adhere the layered panel to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base. Using the Everyday Arches Dies, cut a panel of Basic White and Hydrangea Hue. Stamp the sentient from All Aflutter stamp set in Hydrangea Hue Ink on the Basic White die cut. Stamp the butterfly image from the All Aflutter stamp set in Crisp Cantaloupe Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, on the panel next to the sentiment. Adhere the Basic White die cut to the Hydrangea Hue die cut. Adhere the layered panel to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base, making sure to line it up behind the front panel.

Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope to finish your card. Stamp the outlined butterfly image from the All Aflutter stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink on the envelope front. Stamp the solid butterfly image from All Aflutter stamp set in Crisp Cantaloupe Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, over the detailed image. Adhere a panel of Delicate Dreams DSP to the envelope flap.

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