To My Best Friend - Beautiful Butterflies Card Tutorial

Hello Crafters,
Today's luscious yellow floral tutorial, that uses the brand-new Beautiful Butterflies collection, has been created by our talented DT member Glynis. This eye-catching creation uses the Country Flower stamp and die set from the newly-launched collection alongside elements from the recent Blooming Frames collection, proving that they work wonderfully together. 
Read on for a full step-by-step project tutorial.

YOU WILL NEED:

  

INSTRUCTIONS:

Using the largest die from the Blooming Border nesting die set, place one side just over the fold on the base card and die-cut. Depending on your machine, you may need to do this a few times with a metal shim for a clean cut. Using the same die, cut a piece of white card, then glitter around the four sides with Crystallina Sparkelicious glitter and attach to the base card.

2 Using the second die from the same set, cut into a piece of paper from the Floral Dreams paper pad. Matt and layer onto lemon mirror card from the Sugared Pastels Matt Mirror Card pad and attach to the base card with foam pads.

3 Die-cut the third die from the set on white card, glitter the four sides with Crystallina Sparkelicious glitter, and secure onto the base card. Die-cut the fourth die from the set on patterned paper from the Floral Dreams paper pad, matt onto lemon matt mirror card and secure onto the main card with foam pads.

4 Using the Floral Lace Diamond die set, cut the largest die using lemon matt mirror card and the second one using white card. Glitter the edges of the second piece with Crystallina Sparkelicious glitter and set aside. Die-cut the third using white card. Stamp and heat-emboss the sentiment onto the smallest diamond die-cut shape using Wow! Metallic Silver embossing powder. Matt and layer the heat-embossed panel onto the glittered die-cut panel, attach to the large matt mirror die-cut panel with foam pads, and secure onto the base card with foam pads.

5 Stamp, heat-emboss and die-cut the Country Flowers image numerous times onto white card using Wow! Metallic Silver embossing powder, then colour and glitter with Golden Sunshine Sparkelicious glitter. Shape and adhere the petals together, add a jewel to middle of the flowers, and secure along with the foliage onto the base card.

6 Finally, decorate the topper with jewels from the Spring Collection Bling Box and Iridescent Flower Sequins.
