Hi Cindy here to share a couple cards featuring the Hero Arts Butterfly Fancy Die. Pssst it’s on sale right now at the a2z Scrapbooking Supplies Etsy store, don’t miss it.
First card: I die cut the Fancy Butterfly using a print created using Gel Plate and acrylic ink. For a look of the original print, please visit my blog: Escape To Stamping.
I love that subtle shimmery gold on the bright purple/pink background. Before I die cut, I adhere a piece of Stick It Adhesive sheet to the back of the print. Afterward, I just peel off the backing and stick it on the postage die cut. Easy peasy! 🙂
On my postage stamp die cut (cut using Hero Arts Postage Stamp Infinity Dies) I stamped various postmarks with grey shadow ink. The whole panel is adhere to green pattern card base with foam adhesive.
So after I am done with this one, I looked at the leftovers, namely the negative die cut and the small pieces. I thought why not create a second card using them?! I stick the negative butterfly onto a lime green panel, use a butterfly die cut cut on scrap as guide and stick back the larger manageable pieces.
Then I mount the whole panel onto a white card base stamped with Neon Pink script.
Here’s a close up shot you could see the shimmers.
