I die cut the larger of the Butterfly dies in the Butterfly Card Creator die set three times from white cardstock. I extended the die cutting slightly to allow the butterfly to be more towards the centre. I stacked and glued the three layers together. On the acetate, I used the alcohol inks to create a pattern for the wings of the butterfly. Once this was dry, I placed it behind the butterfly where I wanted it to go, and cut around it, using the butterfly wings as a guide. I glued this in place by only gluing on the back of the stacked butterly wings. I then cut and glued in place, a piece of white cardstock to go on the back of the acetate as I didn’t want the background to interfere with the alcohol ink. I used the DecoFoil and a laminator to foil the sentiment, and also added a small strip of the foil along the edge of the butterfly die. For the background, I ink blended the bottom edge of the card front with the Colour Cloud inks. I then stencilled over this with the Crackle paste and the Gum Leaf stencil on which I had covered the flower portion of the stencil with some tape. Once the paste was dry, I stencilled over it with the Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide ink. I added some splatters using the Peacock Feathers ink, Chic Magenta and a little white acrylic paint. Once the background was dry, I added the butterfly die cut and a few white pearls.
Thank you for stopping by and I hope you're having a happy, creative day!
