Hello my Stampin’ Friends!
Capture the beauty of butterflies with the Beautiful Butterflies Bundle! Stamp and die cut large paper butterflies for detailed card focal points or emboss mesmerizing butterfly patterns onto card backgrounds and gift tags. With all-occasion sentiments, label pieces, gorgeous wing designs, and more, this bundle makes it easy to bring stunning butterfly details to any paper craft.
This stunning butterfly card features a beautiful dimensional die-cut butterfly in soft pink tones as the main focal point. The intricate butterfly design showcases delicate cutout patterns (Everyday Arches Dies) that create elegant shadows and depth, while small pearl accents (2021-2022 In Color Opal Rounds) add a touch of sparkle to the wings. The butterfly appears to flutter gracefully across the card front, creating movement and visual interest.
The background displays a dreamy watercolor effect (from the Everyday Skies 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper (DSP)) blending soft pinks, purples, and blues in a cloud-like pattern. This artistic technique creates a serene sky-like backdrop that perfectly complements the delicate butterfly theme. The colors flow together seamlessly, giving the card an ethereal, peaceful quality that’s both soothing and eye-catching.
Multiple layers of nested die-cut frames (Everyday Arches Dies) in coordinating colors add sophisticated structure to the design. A simple “FOR YOU” sentiment on a clean white banner provides the perfect finishing touch without overwhelming the beautiful artwork. Small rhinestone accents (2021-2023 In Color Opal Rounds) are strategically placed throughout the design to enhance the overall elegance and add subtle sparkle that catches the light beautifully.
The inside of the card features a clean white design with an elegant stitched arch frame (Everyday Arches Dies) and a small pink butterfly accent in the lower left corner, providing ample space for a personal message. The envelope flap showcases the same dreamy watercolor DSP used on the card front, with its beautiful blend of pink, purple, and blue tones that create a cohesive and polished presentation.
