Hello! I'm popping in to share my first cards using the new March 2024 Simon Says Stamp Card Kit - Mix and Match Butterflies! This month's kit is full of fluttery fun! The included stamp set by the same name has some lovely butterfly images and sentiments, and there is a coordinating die for one of the butterflies! There is also a fun embossing folder, lovely pattern paper and some cute embellishments...that's all not to mention the cardstock, envelopes, and more!
The monthly card kit has even more perks now when you sign up for the new Subscription service! There is a video HERE you can watch to learn more!
I had fun creating these light and airy cards with the kit! I started off by heat embossing each of the butterfly images from the Mix and Match Butterflies stamp set. in white on some pattern paper from the kit. I used the one coordinating die to cut one out, then fussy cut the others. Instead of stamping it, I just cut out the center die for each butterfly from the Matte Gold cardstock in the kit. To create a base for these, I trimmed down some of the Ivory cardstock, and used the included Dibble Tile embossing folder in the kit to add texture. I used some of the same pattern paper as each butterfly to trim strips in different sizes to layer diagonally across my card bases, then added the textured pieces (upside down!) over the top of that with foam adhesive. I added the butterflies, using liquid glue just in the centers of them and leaving the wings floating free, and stamped sentiments on the base of the cards. I finished off by rounding off one corner, and embellishing with some of the pretty coordinating gems in the kit! Here are more photos and close up views of each card:
