Instructions:

1.     Fold the Petunia Pop cardstock in half to create the card base.

2.     On the Basic White card layer, stamp the largest butterfly from the Sketched Butterflies set, with Petunia Pop ink. Die cut it out with the coordinating die from the Sketched Butterflies dies.

3.     With a Water Painter, lightly go over the butterfly to blend the ink a bit and fill in the wings with a bit of colour.  When it’s dry, go over the wings with Wink of Stella.

4.     Below where the butterfly was die cut, stamp a sentiment with Basic Gray ink.

5.     Using a Smoky Slate Stampin’ Write Marker, flick the brush tip against the inside of the lid to create a splatter effect all over the white layer.

6.     Glue the white layer to the gray layer and then onto the Petunia Pop card base.

7.     Use Stampin’ Dimensionals to stick the butterfly in the spot where it was die cut from (this will create a shadow effect and you will be able to see the gray layer when you look from the side).

8.     Embellish the card with three Petunia Pop Shimmer Gems. Place 2 to the bottom right of the sentiment and one to the top left of the butterfly.

Happy Stampin' Everyone!!!
