My sister recently celebrated her birthday and today I thought I would share the card that I made for her.  The card base is Highland Heather and the front is cut down to about half so that you can see the inside panel when the card is closed.  I coloured some of the butterflies on the Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Paper using the dark Petal Parade Stampin’ Blend.  One piece is attached to the front panel of the card and the other is attached to Whisper White card and then attached to the inside back panel of the card.  I stamped “Happy Birthday from the Special Celebrations stamp set onto Whisper White card using Highland Heather ink and punched out the greeting using the 1-3/4″ Circle Punch.  The greeting is attached in an off-set manner to a 2-1/4″ Circle of Highland Heather card.  The greeting is attached to the front panel so that it overhangs by about half.  I stamped the butterflies from the Butterfly Gala stamp set onto Whisper White card using Highland Heather ink and punched them out using the matching Butterfly Duet Punch.  I also stamped and punched out one more small butterfly.  One small butterfly is attached to the inside of the card before I stamped the antennae using Highland Heather ink.  The second small butterfly is attached to the greeting panel before I stamped the antennae using Highland Heather ink.  The large butterfly is also attached to the greeting panel but for this one I didn’t stamp the antennae.  Each of the butterflies on the greeting panel have had the wings curled slightly using the bone folder and they are attached in the centre of the body only using Tombow Multipurpose glue.  I added a mini dimensional under each of the wings of the small butterfly and two dimensionals under the left wing of the large butterfly.

I love the look of this card and I certainly love this Designer Series Paper.  It is absolutely gorgeous and free with a qualifying order during Sale-a-Bration.

Once more Happy Birthday Karyn, hope your day was amazing.

Bye for now,

Kris
