Spring is in the air and I am ready for some fun brightly colored cards, how about you? I have a beautiful technique slimline card to share with you today we created at my March 2021 FMN (Forget Me Not) Class that I hope will give you a little creative inspiration.
The star of today’s project is the layered butterflies created with the Brilliant Wings Dies from our Butterfly Bouquet promotion. See promotion details HERE. I purposely matched smaller solid butterflies in bright colors under the larger details butterflies cut out of black cardstock. Did you notice the variation in color on the solid butterflies? I used the blending brushes to add a little depth of color on the lower portion of each one before layering the dies cuts.
I created a template with one of the super cool elements in the Brilliant Wings Dies to add some nice texture behind the butterflies with some embossing paste. I think the brick pattern adds a great touch. What do you think?

I chose the super versatile Here’s a Card Stamp Set to pair with these stunning butterflies. Find the right words for many occasions with the Here’s a Card Stamp Set. Mix and match the greetings for outside and inside your cards. LOVE this! Sadly the Here’s a Card Stamp Set is one of the products that will be retiring soon. If you don’t have this one yet, be sure to purchase it before it is gone forever. See full details on the 2020-2021 Annual Catalog Last Chance list HERE.
