A 3D FLOATING & FLUTTERING PROJECT

Hello to each of you who have returned to see my latest project – this time it is a 3D project. If you are new to my posts, I apprecitate that you took the time to check it out.

I die cut a centred panel from the Floating and Fluttering butterfly panel from the card I shared on Thursday.

Then, I had to think about how I could use it on a project. I’ve been looking at lots of different blogs and Facebook posts and Pinterest posts. AND, although I have seen these before, my attention was drawn to faceted bags/boxes.

This is how I melded these two concepts together.

The die cut section has one butterfly image that has some Cajun Craze in its colouring, so this is the card stock colour Iopted for. Then I stamped the butterfly bundle image several times across the card stock.

Once this faceted gift box was assembled, I punched the two holes across the top to insert and tie some braided linen trim.

The sentiment is from the MANY MESSAGES STAMP SET and coordinating DIE.

Finally, I added a few MATT BLACK DOTS to the colourful butterfly panel.

I can’t wait to make some more facted gift boxes.

Happy stamping.

FLOATING, FLUTTERING BUTTERFLIES

Hello to each of you who may like butterflies and, possibly, the project I am sharing today. Thanks for fluttering by.

This is the first project I have made using the FLOATING & FLUTTERING BUNDLE.

In earlyJanuary 2019, I made a floating frame card – inspired by a post from Jennifer McGuire, using Glad Press N Seal.

The FLOATING & FLUTTERING STAMP SET & FLUTTERING DIES now makes this technique so much quicker and easier.

I stamped, die cut and applied Stampin’ Dimensionals to elevate the butterflies above the Old Olive background panel.

Each of the butterfly sections have been coloured using Stampin’ Blends.

Then, I used the frame from the dies to cut out the centre of the butterfly layer (to be used for another project).

I used the same die to cut a piece of Highland Heather card stock in preparation to fill the space left behind. I used a recently retired embossing folder to add some texture to this card stock piece.

The rest, I think, is very easy to identify. If not, contact me with your questions.

There are lots of colours and lots of elements involved in this card. In the end, I am very happy with the final product.

I like my little embossed and die cut PEARLESCENT DEISGNER PAPER butterfly.

What do you think? What could I do to make this card better?

I look forward to your comments.

Happy stamping.
