Happy Birthday Butterflies

Today’s card was created for a friend who loves butterflies. I decided to create an easel card. If you do not know how to create one of these cards, you can see some directions here on Splitcoast Stampers. The base of the card is Basic Black and I attached a Whisper White panel which I embossed using the Lace Dynamic Embossing Folder. I stamped the greeting from the Picture Perfect Birthday stamp set onto Whisper White card using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. The greeting is cut out using one of the Rectangle Stitched Framelits Dies and attached to a Basic Black rectangle cut using the same dies. The greeting is attached to the card front. I cut basic black using the multiple butterfly die from the Butterfly Beauty Thinlits Dies. I also cut a piece of Lovely Lipstick Foil card using the larger multiple butterfly die. This gorgeous foil card is Free with a qualifying order during Sale-a-Bration.
I trimmed two of the butterflies from the multiple die and attached the Basic Black die on top of the Lovely Lipstick Foil butterfly. The butterflies are attached to the card front using dimensionals so that the butterflies will sit partially over the greeting panel.
To create the easel, I embossed a narrow strip of Whisper White card using the Lace Dynamic Embossing Folder. I punched a strip of Basic Black card using the Decorative Ribbon Border Punch. The Basic Black border is attached behind one long edge of the embossed card. The embossed panel is attached to the bottom of Whisper White card using dimensionals. The edge of the embossed panel is what holds the easel upright.
I think this card is so pretty.
Bye for now,
