Butterfly Brilliance Collection Shines On This Sketch For You!

 The sketch this week at Freshly Made Sketches seemed like a great chance to break out my latest order with the Butterfly Brilliance Collection - this sketch was made for the special Butterfly Bijou Designer Series Paper that's exclusive to the early release of this group of products . . . . read on!

I took the first sheet of Designer Series Paper - yes, it was the one right on top . . . and ran it through my Embossing Machine with the big die - it cuts all the butterflies in one pass! I decided to use the one with the greeny-blues for my card so reached for the coordinating soft pattern in the pack to make my strips for the sketch challenge. I tucked the other die cuts into a Clear Envelope and put them safely in the front of the paper pack so they are ready for my next card idea.

I added a vellum die cut over the top, fastened with a Glue Dot and a small Gilded Gem then popped onto the DSP strips, which were flagged with the Banner Triple Punch. I added texture to my Pretty Peacock cardstock background with the Meadow Moments Embossing Folder.  I wrapped the layers with the Gold Trim from the Forever Greenery Combo Pack - love the way it frays on the ends!

I used the simple Happy Birthday die from the Hey Birthday Chick Dies which are a special promotion only while they last and added it to the layers before popping onto my Thick Basic White card base. And I added some of the DSP to my envelope flap!  Need to get some products? Use this link to go direct to my site and use my Current Host Code so I can send my thank you!

What are your crafting plans for the next few days? I can see lots more butterflies in my future LOL!

Happy stamping
