Manhattan Butterfly

Stampin up beautiful butterflies bigz die

I'll take Manhattan . . . Stampin' Up!'s latest fashion watch.  The chic and elegant style is captured in Stampin' Up!'s new Urban Oasis Designer Series and their exclusive new Beautiful Butterflies Bigz Die.

SC215
I used this week's Splitcoast Sketch Challenge SC215 to get my wheels turning.  Kiwi Kiss card stock took a ride through my Big Shot Die-Cut Machine along with the sweet Polka Dot pattern created by Stampin' Up!'s exclusive Texturz Plates (Backgrounds I).  I die-cut the small butterfly from the textured card stock and layered it over a larger die-cut butterfly (cut from a pretty Baja Breeze pattern from Urban Oasis).  The BrownSignature

  1. Mary…

    Can you tell me where you found the LARGE die cut butterfly??? I’ve been searching for this die and can’t find it. Any help you can be would be much appreciated!

    just me…jan

    Hi Jan: The butterfly I used in today’s card and the larger version are both on the Beautiful Butterflies Bigz Die (114507) Hugs, M

  2. I am not a big fan of butterflies, BUT this card may just change my mind.

    I especially love the DSP, and the texture of the card in general.

  3. ooohhhh, Mary! That is just luscious! Love this pretty and sooo chic card! Simply Fabulous!

  4. Soo beautiful! Love your use of the new papers with the butterfly die. This one was in my box of stuff I received yesterday, but I didn’t have time to use it. Hopefully tonight!

    I feel like I’m finally back in the game now that my box is here! My stamping mojo definitely came back when I sat down to stamp. (You can see a new pic on my blog.)

    Thanks for sharing your beautiful creations!
    Cindy 🙂

  5. As always, you inspire me! I am a hoarder of designer paper and I also struggle with getting my cards to “pop”, so the simple solution is to break out my DP and start cutting it up (gasp! it’s going to hurt at first) — then maybe my cards will start to look as good as yours! (A gal can always dream…) 😉

  6. Wow, Mary, I can’t take my eyes off this one!! Those butterflies are stunning. You really made this card pop!

  7. Wow!!! This is GORGEOUS!!!! Love the dp, the butterflies, everything!! Beautifully done:)

  8. Mary, Love the card, I just ordered the templates myself last week. Can’t wait to create. Thanks for the inspiration!

  9. Beautiful! This is absolutely breathtaking! I love this dp and the fact that Craft is incorporated into the mix.

  10. How have I missed this paper?! Really lovely Mary. Love the small dot texture on the butterfly.

  11. beautiful friend!! we’re all feeling much better…so i think i can join the blogging world again!! really, a stunning card!!
