Hello bloggers! Starting with a piece of black card, cut the
Butterfly Shaped Card die into the card randomly all over. Try to get the die positioned as close as possible without any overlapping. Next cover a piece of white card with a
sticky adhesive sheet and place the black die cut card on top of it. Randomly sprinkle
Polished Silk Glitter over the exposed adhesive areas. I used
Sea Green, Western Blue, Ice Blue, Canadian Blue and Lilac polished silk glitters. Cut the
Happy Retirement sentiment twice out of white card, stack them then glue them into place in the lower corner. The card was completed with white and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 1/4" x 9" in size. All for now, Sue x
Beautiful card Sue.

Morning Sue, loved this card when I saw in on the recent launch, it is so beautiful and the mix of the colours of glitter is fab. Take care and stay safe everyone. Bx
ReplyDeleteHi Sue, it was this sample I commented on during your new most recent launch that gave me the chance of being chosen to receive the most useful die I've ever been lucky enough to win, so thank you for your generosity and if my project using this expression die is as powerful as your sample I'll be happy.
ReplyDeleteWill be ordering a 'wacky wig' to be part of the wig family to make Lottie laugh now our daughter has lost most of her blonde long locks, should be so funny for her considering her grandad is 'short of hair' I'm going for a purple wig I think.
Love to all that visit today xxx
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, another stunning creation, the colours behind the black butterfly stencils is amazing, so rich and elegant, I have seen recently someone demoing how this was done, and it looked so easy.
ReplyDeleteStay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

Hi Sue. Gosh, that's a big card! I am sure we should be able to create a similar card using smaller butterfly dies. I do love the colours you have chosen which really pop against the black card.

Love this butterfly die. I ordered it last week and can't wait to get it to make a card. Hugs, Judy Hollers from NC
ReplyDeleteFantastic technique and gorgeous card. I'm impressed with your placement of the butterfly die cuts as you stagger the cuts without overlapping them. Not so easy to do on a large scale. Loving the colors of the Polished Silk Glitter that you combined for the butterflies. Thank you for sharing. Hugs
