Good Thursday morning stamping friends and welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. If you are starting with me, thank you, I hope you will stop by everyone’s blog to see what they have created this week. If you are hopping over from Akiko’s blog, thank you for stopping by. This week we have Theme Challenge. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card using this week’s theme.
I used the Stampin’ Up! Sketched Butterflies Bundle along with the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder, Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive It’s Okay Cling Stamp Set (available March 4th) and Everyday Arches Dies for my card today.
This is our theme for this week.
Using the 4th from the smallest Everyday Arches Dies, cut the center of the Basic White card front out. Set the cut-out piece back in the center and stamp the small cluster of butterflies from the Stampin’ Up! Sketched Butterflies Cling Stamp Set in Basic Gray Ink on the top and bottom of the panel. Stamp the leaf image from the It’s Okay stamp set in Lost Lagoon Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, on the side of the arch. Stamp the sentiment from the Sketched Butterflies stamp set in Basic Gray on the die cut arch.
Emboss the card front, with center piece, using the Exposed Brick EF. Adhere the large card front panel to a Petal Pink card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Adhere the center die cut arch to the card front, fitting it inside the large card front, using Liquid Glue. Cut the small, detailed butterfly using the Sketched Butterflies Dies from a panel of Pastel Ombre Glimmer Paper. Adhere the butterfly to the top of the arch using a Glue Dot.
Cut the three detailed butterflies from a panel of Petal Pink using the Sketched Butterflies Dies. Adhere the butterflies to the card front using Glue Dots. Add a few Basic Gray Pearls to the center of the butterflies.
On a panel of Basic White, stamp the sentiment from the Sketched Butterflies stamp set in Basic Gray Ink. Stamp the leaf image from the It’s Okay stamp set in Lost Lagoon Ink on the bottom of the panel. Stamp the butterfly image from the Sketched Butterflies stamp set in Petal Pink Ink next to the sentiment. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Lost Lagoon mat then to the inside of the Petal Pink card base.
Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope to complete the card. Stamp the leaf image from the It’s Okay stamp set in Lost Lagoon Ink on the envelope front and flap. Stamp the butterfly image from the Sketched Butterflies stamp set in Petal Pink Ink on the envelope front and flap. Stamp the cluster of butterflies from the Sketched Butterflies stamp set in Basic Gray Ink on the envelope flap.
