2. Butterflies
Watch This Video if you want to learn how to cut detailed dies (formerly called Thinlits).
~Cut the bottom Butterfly layer from the Designer Series Paper using the die with the most metal.
~Use Purple Posy cardstock to cut the upper Butterfly layer from what I call the Butterfly outline die.
~ Attach the Butterflies with a very small amount of Tombow Glue to some of the Butterflies Bodies and wing tips. You do want the smaller butterflies outer wings unattached to get this look.
~Put Stampin’ Dimensionals and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back of some parts of the butterflies. The upper left small Butterfly has no Stampin’ Dimensionals, however the large Butterfly’s wing tip just below it does. You can cut both sizes of Dimensionals in half if necessary. Attach Butterflies to card base.
3. Add some Seaside Spray Faceted Dots around your Butterflies directly onto the cardbase.
Your Beautiful Butterflies card is finished!
