Simple butterfly cards

Hi everyone!  I have a couple fun cards to share today!  Both use the gorgeous Les Papillions Two butterfly die set, framed by one of my favorite labels shapes, Labels Twenty and sentiments are from JustRite called Large Elegant Sentiments (a must have set!).

First up is a card I made using the M-Bossibilities folder Quilted Delight to emboss the top portion of the card.  The pattern paper I used on this is from MME, Tangerine with a strip of 1/8" velvet ribbon along the bottom.

Given this is a one layer card, I turned the folder sideways to emboss only the top portion of my pre-scored card.  I taped it down so it wouldn't slip and get a skewed result.

For my next card, I did some criss-cross scoring with my Scor-Buddy.  It shows you can get a great embossed detail even if you don't have any folders.  For this butterfly, I cut/embossed the top layer in vellum and added stickles to it.  I discovered that when stickles dries on vellum, it curls the paper.  So I manually curled it so the wings curled upward.  The pattern paper used on this is from Webster's Pages, Recorded.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!  Here is a close up of the vellum butterfly detail.

Congrats Sally!  Head on to Sharon's blog to get the info on how to claim your lovely blog candy!

I also have a card to share.  This one uses the JustRite Stamp set, You Inspire Me.  Have to say, it's one of my favies.  Look at that delicate circle frame image, the scrolls are so perfect!  The pattern paper is Pink Paislee, from the older Butterfly Garden pack and the fabulous green Bloomers are from Webster's Pages.

I used some more of the Nestabling rhinestone circles from Want2Scrap.  LOVE these accents and you know they are designed to coordinate perfectly with Spellbinders and JustRite Stamps!  I'll say it again, circles are my favorite Spellbinders die template!!!

Thanks for stopping by and have a great evening!
