Butterfly Trio

Like the butterfuly Buttons card, this card joyfully can make one's day! It's color is called melon but we would dub as perfectly peach. Receiving this card from you would change someone's blue attitude in an instant.

What's fun about the card Sandie has made for you is that it combines a clear stamp set, the butterfly, with an EZ Mount red rubber set for nearly unlimited 'poshabilities'. This Faith and Hope EZ Mount set has so many enticing combinations possible while the clear butterfly duet is one of the most popular images Posh has ever produced. In this card the clear butterfly uses both the colorful solid image and the overlaying line art image. It shows how clear and rubber stamps can be used together with beautiful results.

• Cut pieces: White cardstock: 6 ½” x 10” folded in half for a 5” x 6 ½” card, 5 ½” x 8 ½” melon cardstock, folded in half for a 4 ¼” x 5 ½” piece. Cut each ribbon to 27” length.

• Stamp three solid butterfly images using Orange Blending Blox on bottom of front flap of melon card. Overstamp three butterfly outlines using Wine ink. Cut away bottom portion of butterflies. Stamp mesh background using wine ink on cardstock underneath butterflies. Tie ribbons around top of melon card. Adhere top and bottom flaps together with mounting tape.

• Stamp solid butterfly and butterfly outline onto shrink plastic with Orange Blending Blox and wine ink, respectively. Cut out close to image. Heat to shrink. Hang butterfly charm with jumpring from knot in ribbon.

• Assemble finished card by adhering melon element to front of white card.
