The card I wanted to share with you today was created by Cindy for my exchange at my STARZ downline meeting this past weekend. I thought this card was really beautiful.
She stamped Stampin' Up!'s Pocket Silhouettes stamp set in several colors on top of each other to create the look of a field in bloom. I really liked this technique, I have own Stampin' Up!'s Pocket Silhouettes stamp set for a couple of years and I love it but I always stamp it as individuals and never thought about stacking them on top of each other like this. I think it is a fun technique.
The butterfly were created with Stampin' Up!'s Embosslits Die Beautiful Wings. This die cuts and embosses the butterfly images when you run it through the Big Shot machine. I liked how she created the center of the butterfly with a 3/4" circle punch and some linen thread. She layered the butterfly using dimensionals so it appears to be flying over the field. The colors of the cardstock layers are: Soft Suede, Regal Rose, So Saffron and Whisper White. She stamped the friend to Friend with Soft Suede ink.
The last detail I wanted to point out to you is the border, it is hard to see in the picture but she punched a strip of So Saffron with the Eyelet Border punch and then she crimped it with the Crimper to give it added texture.
