Good Afternoon, Marnie here! I've created a card for today using a couple of the new Stencils "Butterfly Drifting - 88504" and "Butterfly Vine - 88524" they are very cool and work together perfectly. First I stenciled with the "Butterfly Drifting - 88504" and white embossing paste on turquoise cardstock and let it dry. Then I sponged over it with the "Butterfly Vine - 88524" and Picked Raspberry Distress Ink. The affect is very cool and the techniques are endless with these stencils. I layered everything onto "Currant Distressed Dots" and a white cardstock with some green ribbon. I also used the "Joy Script - 98641" as the greeting on the card. When that was done I used a some leftover Turquoise cardstock to cut the "Buttermilk Carton - 98739" from and did the embossing paste process on all four sides of the carton before taping it together. I then added flowers with the "Sophia Bloom Set - 98840" along the bottom with a little glitter in the middle for sparkle. Again using Pink Cardstock and the "Currant Distressed Dots"
Hope your enjoying all of the beautiful things created here on the blog with the new dies. Be sure to check everything out for this entire week!
What a neat idea! I love how you used these two stencils together...and was wondering what you could do with them too. Looks awesome, love your technique. Beautiful card and box too! Thanks for sharing.
