Step 1 – Decide what papers you want to use from the Butterfly Garden range. Trim off the barcode strip and trim a panel to fit onto the front of your folded card.

Step 2 – Use double sided tape to adhere the panel to the front of the card. Then adhere a strip of the barcode above the strip on the panel. Add some paint splats onto the background.

Step 3  – Die cut some flowers from patterned paper Butterfly Garden Sheet 4.

Step 4 – Foil some square frames using copper foil with you Go Press and Foil, and then die-cut the frames for a perfect cut.

Step 5 – Use a 3d Design to create an image for your card. Dot & Do 3D Push Out Kit – Vintage Flowers – Purple Birds

step 6 – Assemble your card using the background, foiled frame and 3D element. Finish off with some diamante and dimensional glaze.

When you combine all these wonderful elements together to create a card, you can create some really interesting.
Foiled and distress bits and pieces layered on die-cuts with a beautiful 3D element – what more can you ask for.

And in a few easy steps you have created a great card, and with the right sentiment it would be perfect for mother’s day this month (in South Africa)

Until next time – I hope you are inspired to use your stash together and for different things.
