Hey friends!
So my friend Bibiana Cameron <-------click! (I HIGHLY recommend checking out her blog - she makes amazing cards) just released a collection with Spellbinders called Bibi's Butterflies:
Aren't they fabulous? She had Spellbinders send me some of the die sets and while I intended to use all of them for this post I got carried away with the Butterfly Card Creator Etched Die set and made a bunch of cards with it:
The Butterfly Card Creator die set is HUGE - the largest butterfly wafer die in the set measures 5x7". LOVE IT.
I made a butterfly-shaped card with it, and a 5x7 card, and an A2 card and then ended up making two 4-bar cards (3.5 x 5.5") because I made a TON of the flowers and leaves from the set.
This butterfly-shaped card uses the 2 large butterfly wafer dies in the Butterfly Card Creator Die set and makes a 5x7" card.
For all the die cut sentiments on the fronts of the cards I used Spellbinders Simply Perfect Mix and Match Sentiments.
I created a 5x7" card base from Simon's Smooth White card stock, masked off the perimeter and then blended Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxide ink around it before adhering another large butterfly and all the florals and sentiment.
I used the slightly smaller butterfly from the Butterfly Card Creator die set and adhered it to a white A2-sized card base for this card.
Then since I still had a BUNCH of the florals and greenery die cuts I made 2 more 4-Bar Sized cards. I used the largest butterfly and cut it and the body in half and adhered the halves to each card.
I kept all the insides simple and stamped sentiments from Simon's XL Greetings 2 stamp set with Villainous Potion Distress Oxide ink and that was it!
