Butterfly Flutters Move Me

  • Flutter Little Butterflies
  • Buy your Daisy punch before its gone!

Butterflies Move Me


Today I'm playing with a new die set called Move Me.  It coordinates with a stamp set called, You Move Me, but I only used the dies.  The butterfly die from this thinlit set is two dies that can be used together.  The inside die creates the detailed wings.  The larger, outside die creates the butter fly shape.  Both can be run through the Big Shot together to cut the Basic Black image.  Then the larger shape die is used to cut out a shape to use as a backing to give the butterfly color.  I ran the outer shape die through the Big Shot to cut the Lemon Lime Twist butterfly backing.  

      






I used a base card of Lemon Lime Twist, then a layer of Basic Black and then a background layer from the Fresh Florals Designer Series Paper Pack in Lemon Lime Twist.  I created a Whisper White image block matted in Basic Black for the two butterflies.  







The sentiment is cut using the smallest of the Stitched Shape Framelit dies and matted onto a Basic Black scalloped circle cut with the Layering Circles Thinlits.  

The butterflies dies is part of the You Move Me Bundle, with the You Move Me Stamp set.  Purchased together, you save 10% and the item numbers are listed below.

The body of the butterfly includes one of the smallest Glitter Enamels, which is the perfect accent for this card.  This card brightened my day!  I love this sentiment so much that it sits on one of my clear blocks on my stamping desk permanently ... and its retired... from the Sunburst Saying set, but too great to give up.

Climbing Orchad stamp set from Stampin' Up!

  • Which are your favorite?  Striped or Spotted Orchids?
  • Daisy punch is back in stock!

Daffodil Delight Orchids


Today I'm playing with another new stamp set called Climbing Orchid and its coordinating die set called Orchid Builder Framelits.  I wasn't aware that orchids came in so many colors.  From plain, ordinary white to every shade of the rainbow!.  Also, orchids come in different shading and tones and this wonderful stamp set is full of stamps that create different orchid looks in both stripes or spots.   

I choose Daffodil Delight with Berry Burst accents for my first use of this set.  I can't wait to try other color combinations!  

      







I used a base card of Fresh Fig with a coordinating Fresh Fig ribbon.  The accent layers were Crumb Cake and Soft Suede and the image block is Very Vanilla.  The sentiment is also from the Climbing Orchid set.  







The Very Vanilla image block is dry embossed with the new Pinewood Planks Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.  The flowers are stamped with Berry Burst ink.  The stems and sentiment are stamped in Soft Suede.  I love the look of these orchids.  This set is going to get a lot of  use, I predict.   One other note:  I haven't played with Fresh Fig, one of the new In Colors, until today.  Looking at it in the package, it just didn't do anything for me.  However, when paired with other colors, Fresh Fig takes center stage!  It becomes a rich, warm compliment that I'm really beginning to love.  




Recipe for card:


Stamps: Climbing Orchid
Ink:  Berry Burst, Soft Suede
Paper: Daffodil Delight, Very Vanilla, Soft Suede, Crumb Cake, Fresh Fig 
Accessories:  Pinewood Planks Impression Embossing Folder, Orchid Builder Framelits, 1/2" Fresh Fig Finely Woven Ribbon, Big Shot, Big Shot Platform, Precision Base Plate, Standard Cutting Pads, Multipurpose Glue, Dimensionals
