STAMPtember Butterfly Rose Bouquet

Hello, and welcome to my blog! I’m so happy that you dropped by! It’s that time of year again when STAMPtember is upon us. One of the best months of the year! There’s so many new products, and so much inspiration to draw from, not to mention all of the collaboration sets that will debut soon. With the release of all the STAMPtember products, Simon Says Stamp is hosting a huge blog party with codes for free gifts and gifts with purchase! So, be sure to check out all of the blog posts in the party! You can begin the party by starting at Simon’s blog! Check the bottom of this post for my STAMPtember code! For my card today, I’m featuring the new Billow Butterfly, so let’s run through the details.

To begin, I stamped the floral image from the SSS Orchid Rose Bouquet on a panel of Neenah 110lb cardstock using PFS Misty Coast Ink. I chose this ink, because I wanted a very light background that didn’t distract from the focal point of the card. I then trimmed the panel down using the PFS Diagonal Stitched Rectangles, and cut so that the floral image was on the bottom portion of my card panel.

I used the SSS Etched Eucalyptus Wreath and cut three of those from Neenah 110lb cardstock, and adhered them together using liquid glue. Next, I used the new SSS Billow Butterfly to cut some of the butterflies from some scrap Tim Holtz patterned paper that I had hanging around in my stash. This die is super cool, because it’s one piece that cuts several different butterflies, including solid butterflies as well as, outline butterflies. I opted for the solid for this particular project, because I wanted to be able to see the print of the patterned paper. Once the butterflies were cut, I adhered the bodies using liquid glue and moved on to working on the sentiment.

For the sentiment, I used the thank you die, which is from the SSS Handlettered Greetings set. I die cut the sentiment once from Burnished Rose cardstock, and four times from Neenah 110lb, and adhered all of those together. I wanted the sentiment to be thick, so that it would be sturdy.

To assemble the card, I glued the wreath to the stamped panel, and then glued the patterned butterflies atop the wreath. The butterflies are only glued down at the bodies, so that their wings could be curled for added dimension. Once those were in place, I adhered the sentiment only where it comes into contact with the wreath, hence wanting a thicker sentiment for sturdiness. I trimmed off the excess portions of the sentiment and added some clear drops for a little shine. The panel was then adhered to the card base using foam tape.

That does it for this project! I hope you enjoyed it, and I hope it inspires you to get crafty as well. Don’t forget to check out the entire STAMPtember release along with all of the blog posts celebrating this awesome release! Each blog post will have a different code for gifts! Thanks again for stopping by! Have a wonderful day and stay awesome friend!

Its sublety of color, the butterflies and all their symbolism, that gorgeous wreath, the clear droplets…. it all adds up to a beautiful composition. Not only is your card a “10” but you are, as well.

    Such a pretty and elegant card. I love that it’s predominantly white with just a little muted color on the butterflies. Well done !!
