Sneak Peek: Shimmery Butterflies

Happy Monday stampers! I’ve sent out all my Christmas Cards and received my box of products from the new 2022 January to June Mini Stampin’ Up! Catalogue so I’ve started playing! 🙂 This card was one that I could see in my head easily before I started making it and it turned out just as beautiful as I imagined it. It may be hard to see in the picture, but, the butterflies are sooo sparkly!

Directions

1. Press the Highland Heather ink pad on to a corner of a stamping block. Pick up the colour from the stamping block with the largest Water Painter and swipe the colour back and forth on to the Watercolor Paper. Let dry or Heat set. Repeat with the Polished Pink and the Coastal Cabana ink pads.
2. Place the butterfly mask on top of the Watercolor Paper and use a Palette Knife to add Shimmery Embossing Paste. Let dry and repeat between. (Tip: make sure to wash the mask quickly after use so that the paste doesn’t harden to much)
3. Adhere the layers together and add 3 Black Dots to the bottom left.
4. Stamp the greeting on the piece of Basic Black cardstock using Versamark ink. Sprinkle White Embossing Powder on top, tap off excess and heat set. (Tip: use retired Heat Tool or a Dryer sheet on the piece of Basic Black cardstock first before stamping to take out the static from the cardstock).
5. Add the greeting to the card using Dimensionals.
