My Favorite Things - May Release Countdown Day 3 (Halfway to the Release!)


Hello again!


I'm back today to share another May release project featuring more of the upcoming new products! Today's project features the new Brilliant Butterflies Stamp Set, the coordinating Brilliant Butterflies Die-Namics, and the Circle Celebration Background Stamp.


The options for using the multi-step stamps in the Brilliant Butterflies Stamp Set or unlimited and offer the opportunity to play with them in so many different ways!  For this project, I stamped the solid butterfly images onto a Smooth White die cut using Tickled Pink Dye Ink (there are two stamps for the wings - the top and the bottom).  Then I stamped the detailed wing image onto a vellum butterfly die cut, as well as the body of the butterfly, both using VersaMark Ink, and then heat embossing the images using gold embossing powder. I assembled the two die cuts together with some clear foam tape.  I stamped the Circle Celebration Background onto a panel of Tickled Pink card stock using VersaMark, and then heat embossed it with the same gold embossing powder.  I die cut an aperture from the center of the panel using the Tall Snow Globe Die-Namics. I trimmed an A2, top folding card base from Smooth White card stock, folded it in half, scored it and perfected the crease with my teflon bone folder. Then I stamped the sentiment from the Essential Sentiments Stamp Set in VersaMark and heat embossed it with gold embossing powder. I've listed and linked all of the MFT products that I used below (although the links to the new products won't be live until the May release.)

I’ve been looking for ways to use the Brilliant Butterflies which I recently got.....I just LOVE the card you’ve designed with them! The various layers and gold embossing are just beautiful.
