The card I’m sharing with you today was made with the following products: Beautiful Butterflies Bundle, Beautiful Bokeh 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper, Perennial Postage Dies, Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder and Starburst Sequins.
I started with a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I adhered a piece of Beautiful Bokeh Designer Series Paper to the front of the card. Next, I used a piece of Basic White cardstock and cut it out using the Perennial Postage Dies. I ran it through my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder and then adhered it to the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock in Fresh Freesia ink using the Beautiful Butterflies stamp set. When I cut it out using the Perennial Postage Dies, I had the sentiment over to very right because I slipped the excess under the butterfly. I then set the sentiment aside.
I cut the solid butterfly out of Fresh Freesia cardstock and the detailed one out of Beautiful Bokeh Designer Series Paper using the Beautiful Butterflies Dies (these dies come with Beautiful Butterflies Hybrid Embossing Folder). I adhered the detailed butterfly to the solid butterfly running a small amount of glue down the middle of the detailed butterfly. I cut an antenna for the butterfly out of Basic White cardstock and adhered the antenna to the body of the butterfly using Multipurpose Glue.
I decided where I wanted the sentiment to go and adhered it to the card. Then, I put Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back of the butterfly and adhered it to the front of the card.
To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside and three small Starburst Sequins to the front of the card.

I stamped the sentiment in Pool Party ink onto Basic White cardstock and then cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the top of the card. Then, I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to each cupcake circle and then added them to the front of the card.
I added two white Purple Adhesive-Backed Sequins to the front of the card. To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card.
