Stampin’ Up! Australia - Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Framelit Die

Hi

Welcome to this week's Create with Connie and Mary Thursday Challenge.







Here are the essentials:

  • No white cardstock!! A complete departure of style for me, but only in the colour department...I've still kept the design simple and let the colours speak for themselves.
  • Kraft + wood. Wooden elements work beautifully with Kraft cardstock - try it!
  • Keep the die cut intact. I kept the intricate pieces of the butterfly intact for effect - just make the Big Shot sandwich shallower so that the pieces don't get cut all the way through.
  • Use up your DSP! I used a sheet of the Bermuda Bay stripey DSP from the Shine On Specialty DSP pack.  

Here are our colours for this week:

Ink - none!

  3. So bold and beautiful! The Shine On paper is perfect with the wood element, and it is refreshing to see a card without white!

  4. I love this Alison and agree with Chris - it makes such a nice change to see a no-white card! Great job in keeping the butterfly intact too - I'm sure I would have lost a piece or two! Very striking.

  5. I agree with the others...leaving all those pieces in the butterfly really adds a neat effect! It looks fabulous against that striped paper!
