'Butterfly Trio.'

 Hi there Lovelies,

Hoping all is well with you and you had a good weekend whatever you were doing.   Tonight I would like to share another card with you, which I made in January of 2022, for a Hochanda T.V. show for Imagination Crafts. 

I used Sparkle & Twinkle glitter paste, a butterfly stamp, a stencil and some rice paper, plus some decoupage glue, a black ink pad and acetate.

Matt and layer a seven and a quarter inch square of black card onto an 8"x 8" white base card.   Cut out the section of the rice paper that you would like for the background of your card, cutting it slightly larger than a 7" x 7" square.   Glue this to a 7" square of white card, using the decoupage glue, bending the excess rice paper to the back of the piece of card and gluing  it down.

When dry, lay the dotty design from the A4 'Artist's Treasures',  stencil, (from the 'Imagination Craft's 'Flowermania' collection).     Secure the stencil to the top right of the background card using a low tack sticky tape.   

Spread the Silver Dollar glitter paste over the dotty design using a metal spatula.

   

 

 Remove the tape and stencil and leave the image to dry.   Lay the dotty semi circle design from the same stencil onto the background card, stretching it from the top left corner, nearly to the bottom, (about an inch from the bottom) and spread the silver dollar glitter paste over the design.  Remove the stencil and leave the image to dry.   Matt this onto the black matt on the  8" square white base card.

 

Stamp the butterfly from the 'Always and Forever' collection onto some acetate using a black Stazon ink pad, a total of three times.   Cut out all three butterflies, shape their wings a little, then glue each one inside the circle on the background adding a little silicone glue under each wing.

Below are a few close up photos of the card.   When the light catches the sparkle paste it really twinkles, just love this product.

 I do hope you like it.   Thank you for stopping by to read my blog, I really appreciate it.   Take care of yourselves until my next blog post.   Cheerio for now.
