Hello! There is a new release today from Simon Says Stamp of coordinating dies for previously released Tim Holtz stamp sets. I enjoyed playing with the two fall sets in the release, and this first card I'm sharing today was such a FUN one to put together. I was thrilled with how it turned out!
To create the butterfly, I used the Leaf Prints 2 set, and chose two leaves that were more symmetrical, one larger and one smaller. I used a blend of Shell and Salmon ink to stamp the larger one, and Salmon and Coral to stamp the smaller one. Once they were stamped, I die cut them with the NEW coordinating dies. I die cut the center of the butterfly using the Confetti Butterflies coordinating die - I really wanted a chunkier one for the center, but that was the best I had on hand. In the end I think it worked okay! I used the Thread Plaid embossing folder with some Concord & 9th cardstock for the background, then layered over a frame die cut with A2 Notched Rectangles and Ivory glitter cardstock. Sentiment is from the Heirloom Roses set, and I die cut a few extra layers to stamp up for dimension. I adhered the butterfly with liquid glue in the center, then foam to pop up the wings. A few Clear Dazzling gems are the perfect finishing touch! Here's a closer look at this fun design:
