Today's the day (Noon EST) for StampNation peeps to order products from the Flutters & Blooms Collection. WOOHOO!!! This is just one of the many awesome perks of being a StampNation member. But that's not the only perk you get. Check this out! A free limited edition stamp set.
I love the sentiment on this one.
This is a while supplies last stamp set so hurry and grab yours while you can.
And while your there if you haven't already done so grab the FREE digital download - it's perfect for this time in our world. Catherine has been making a ton of cards with it - I've made a few but I'm waiting for my order of ink for my printer to arrive so I can make more.
My card today features the gorgeous butterfly from the Wings of Joy stamp set and the beautiful Flower Burst Cover Plate.
I started by embossing the butterfly using Turkish Nights for the wings and Metallic Gold Sparkle for the body. Using a water brush and some inks (listed below) I colored it in and then added a wash of blue to the background. After cutting it to line up with the edges of the panel below I sponged some Juniper Mist ink around the edges.
I used the Flower Burst Cover Plate to emboss with. To do this you need an embossing mat. You make your 'sandwich' in this way - cutting plate, die (facing up), card stock, embossing mat, cutting plate. This is what works for me and my machine - sometimes I need to add a piece of copy paper depending on the die. I added the hello word die from the Ways to Say Hey die set and a few sequins from the Mission Sequin Mix to finish this card.
Leave me a comment telling me what your favorite product in this collection is. Mine are on this card. That butterfly and cover plate have my heart.
Happy Stampin'
and thanks so much for visiting!
Stay safe everyone!!
