The Stampin’ Up! Bitty Butterfly and Elegant Butterfly punches were used to create this simple congratulations card. The two butterfly punches are retiring and only available while supplies last. Click on the categories below to see what else is retiring. Select items are on sale, up to 50% off.
STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:
- Pretty layers! Two Copper Foil butterflies were cropped with the Bitty Butterfly Punch and one was cropped from the larger, coordinating Elegant Butterfly Punch
- Washi butterflies! A scrap piece of very vanilla card stock was wrapped in the copper dotted Affectionately Yours Designer Washi Tape (also retiring and 40% off). Two large butterflies were punched with the Elegant Butterfly punch and one butterfly was punched from the Bitty Butterfly Punch.
- The punched Bitty Butterflies were mounted onto the Elegant Butterflies with a Stampin’ Dimensional. Each Butterfly was then glued to the sentiment panel.
- NEW Very Vanilla thick card stock (available June 1) was used for the card base. I love the added sturdiness! A 1 1/4″ panel of Copper Foil card stock is the frame for the 2″ panel of Very Vanilla card stock.
- The “congrats” sentiment is from Happy Happenings stamp set. This stamp set is retiring on May 31st but is only guaranteed available for purchase through May 22. There is a sentiment for many occasions.
