Butterfly Gala Card

Elaine Greenwood - Canadian Stampin' Up! Demonstrator

Butterfly Gala Card:

Hi, today is my first time participating in the Happy Stampers Blog Hop.

Eva and I have created cards using this sketch:

The card I created used the Butterfly Gala Bundle.  I chose to use this bundle again as I am waiting for my order of new Occasions Catalogue and Sale-a-Bration Brochure items.  Can't wait!

Below is how I created my Butterfly Gala Card:

• Daffodil Delight cardstock cut at 8½ x 5½ and scored at 4¼.
• Gorgeous Grape cardstock cut at 4 x 5¼ and adhered to the card front.
• Gingham Gala Designer Series Paper cut at 3¾ x 5 and adhered to the Gorgeous Grape cardstock layer.
• On a scrap of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from Varied Vases and die cut with one of the Layering Circle Dies.
• From Gorgeous Grape cardstock die cut a scalloped circle from the Layering Circle Dies and adhere the Whisper White sentiment circle to this.
• Using Highland Heather Cardstock cut a strip ¾" x 3¾ and snip the one end to form a banner.
• From the Botanical Designer Series Paper cut a strip ¾" x 3¼  and snip the one end to form a banner.
• Stamp the Butterfly Stamp using Memento Black Ink onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock and punch out with the Butterfly Punch.  Colour both the large and small butterflies using Daffodil Delight and Highland Heather light and dark blends.
• Attach the large butterfly to the top of the sentiment circle, add some Gingham Gala Self Adhesive Sequins in Highland Heather and 4 Rhinestones down the centre of the butterfly.
• Attach both banners on the card using snail and then attach the sentiment circle using dimensionals.

Here is a picture of the inside of my Butterfly Gala Card.  I added the small butterfly that was punched out at the same time as the larger butterfly and the sentiment also came from the Varied Vases Stamp set.

Now it’s time to hop over and see what Eva has created for this week’s sketch.  I know it will be awesome! You can click on the Next button, or on Eva's name below to visit her blog:
