Hello my crafty friends! Today I'm sharing my first card made with the Pop Up Butterfly die from Spellbinders. The designer is BiBi Cameron and they released a bunch of butterfly related stamps and dies last month. I covet them ALL - seriously! But ... exercising restraint, I only ordered this Butterfly Pop Up and it's going to be lots of fun. Especially since it fits in a 3.5" width card so I can use it for both Slimlines and Mini Slimline cards!
The card base was created with the patterned paper, which is surprisingly heavy. More like a patterned card stock. I have had it for several years, it's a variety pack from Hobby Lobby which I bought when we were visiting Arizona that year. The tall sentiment was cut from mirror card stock and I added a couple of the Pinkfresh Studio butterflies and a single 3d floral sticker. The sticker is hard to see in the photo above but it's glittery and shows up perfectly in real life.
Below is the inside, with that beautiful Butterfly Pop Up!
I die cut the floral border from the same patterned cardstock as I used to create the card base and I really like the soft colour they bring to the card. The Slimline border dies are ones that I've had for a couple of months (linked below) and I love dies like this that you can use for so many different cards and occasions.
The butterfly base was cut from white pearl card stock (again, that shows up beautifully in real life) and the detail layer & body from mirror card stock. The sentiment was stamped on a stitched circle to separate it a little from the background and I added a gold Peel-Off sticker as well.
Can't wait to play with this Pop up Butterfly again, and plan on making a Mini Slimline card with it!

So pretty, haven’t played with mine yet, other than testing if it would fit on a slimline card 😊
ReplyDeleteI really liked the front of your card. Is the "Happy Birthday To You", one whole die or did you use alphabet dies? I googled to see if there was a whole die, but couldn't see one. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteThe Happy Birthday is part of a Concord & 9th set and it is a single die. There is also a group of balloons included. I have NO idea how I missed linking it, but thank you for noticing. It is linked there for you now!
