Butterfly Card: Springtime Impressions Dies
Wow. What a fun, crazy day. Since we've all been home for 3 or 4 days, suddenly everyone is reaching out to each other: my family, my husband's family, friends, neighbors, customers, stamping friends. Everyone wanted to "check in" today. Facetime, text messages, mailed cards, Facebook Live. At one point I was texting with 8 people at the same time! And between contacts I was listening to on-line Social Media Marketing Classes that I thought would be a great way to spend extra time until I can begin holding live classes again. Needless to say I didn't spend any time in my craft room today. So I'm going to show you one of the cards I made at a recent shoe box swap. The card was designed by my friend Carol Cory here in Houston, TX, and she also hosted the shoe box swap. (Thanks, Carole! We had so much fun!)
I really like this card because it uses stamp sets and dies that I have on hand from the annual catalog as well as some of my newer January-July 2020 Mini sets.
The basecard for today's card is Blackberry Bliss. Then a Whisper White layer stamped with images from the Positive Thoughts Stamp set using Sahara Sand and Blackberry Bliss ink.
The butterfly is created using the Springtime Impressions Dies. Cut one in Sahara Sand and the other from Blackberry Bliss Cardstock. Its mounted on a image layer of Whisper White and matted in Blackberry Bliss.
The sentiment is from the Woven Heirlooms Stamp Set and stamped in Blackberry Bliss ink. Below the sentiment is a die cut from the Flourish Dies from Sahara Sand Cardstock. The accents on the butterfly are Metallic Pearls and a Pearl Basic Jewels colored with a Light Crumb Cake Stampin' Blends Marker.
Below is a close-up of the two layers of the butterfly die. The Blackberry Bliss Cardstock sets off the Sahara Sand cardstock beautifully. If you don't have these exact dies and stamps, look through your existing sets and you're sure to find a floral set and butterfly dies you could use with minor changes to the card layout.

This is the perfect time to use your current stash of craft supplies as you spend some time in your Happy Stampin' Place. Make a list of friends, neighbors, and family that need a note of cheer, a friendly hello, or a note of appreciation to help them pass the time. Our brave delivery service workers like our UPS drivers, and our mail person are helping to keep us connected. Let's make a card to thank them for the great service they provide. A handmade card from you would likely be highly appreciated during trying times.
