Die Cut Card

First, if you remember from my last post, I asked you to guess which stamp I used with the VersaMark on the kraft card. A couple of you guessed the Damask Heart stamp, and that was correct! Great job, and thanks for playing along for fun!

Now for today, I felt like playing with die cuts. I used a die cut for the cardbase, a die cut for the butterfly, sewing, and punches. Here is how my card turned out.

Memory Box Papers: licorice cs, key lime dots, pool gingham, squash gingham, cranberry dots, mango distressed dots
Stamps:  Memory Box Let's Catch Up B883
Stamp Ink:  Colorbox frost white
Memory Box Dies: scalloped frame 98247, moonlight butterfly 98260
Embellishments: Stickles diamond, Creative Memories hexagon punch, sewing machine

To create (note, click the photo to enlarge and see closely):

1.  Using the Memory Box scalloped frame die {98247}, cut your cardbase out of Memory Box licorice cardstock. Score in half and fold.

2.  Using either a circle punch or a hexagon punch, punch 3 larger shapes and 2 smaller shapes out of Memory Box key lime dots, pool gingham, squash gingham, cranberry dots, and mango distressed dots.

3.  Attach to card as desired, and sew around the card and through the shapes.

4.  Cut two butterflies from the Memory Box Moonlight Butterfly {98260} die using Memory Box licorice cs and cranberry dots with the die.

5.  Layer the black butterfly on the back of the red butterfly allowing a little bit of the black to show. Place the black body on top.

6.  Fill the dots on the butterfly with Stickles diamond.

7.  Use pop dots to attach the butterfly to your card.

8.  Stamp the sentiment using white ink on licorice cs.

9.  Attach sentiment to card to finish.

I hope you enjoyed this quick card. Thanks for stopping by!
