Butterfly ‘Hi’

Hello. I’d like to share a card using a couple of techniques I haven’t used in a while:

Onto a Kraft card base, I used an Altenew stencil and roughly applied Altenew white embossing paste through it.

Letting that dry, I then used an old – very old – Spellbinder butterfly die to die cut the butterfly out of pink card stock, then used the detail die to dry emboss the details. I did have to interrogate my Sizzix platform for how to do that – but it worked out how I wanted it.

I also die cut some Simon Says Stamp leaves out of vellum, and white heat embossed the sentiment onto some grey card stock.

I first attached the sentiment and then the butterfly – both with 3D foam, then put some glue onto the bottoms of the leaf stems and inserted underneath the butterfly.

Some pink sequins and it’s done.
