Stampin' Up! Beautiful Butterflies shaped fun fold card-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
The inspiration for today’s card came from this week’s Tic Tac Toe Challenge board.

I chose to go down the middle: Shape Card, Free, Ink Blending. The shape card was easy to create using the Beautiful Butterflies Dies. Stampin' Up! Beautiful Butterflies Dies-visit juststampin.com for inspiration and ordering information-Jeanie Stark StampinUp

Lovely Garden Birthday with Beautiful Butterflies for Tic Tac Toe Challenge #266

Welcome to the latest challenge from the Tic Tac Toe Design Team! Here’s this week’s board.
Tic Tac Toe Challenge #266 www.tictactoechallenge Viist juststapin.com for inspiration and more-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
I chose elements across the top and down the middle making a T for Tic Tac Toe. Here’s my card.

Bright colors, flowers, twine, spring, 3D…all these elements and more are here in this fun fold pop up card. I used the Lovely Garden Designer Series Paper from Stampin’ Up!’s online exclusives for the background on my card.
Check out this soft but striking paper pack!

Stampin' Up! Lovely Garden 12x12 Designer Series Paper-visit juststampin.com for inspiration and ordering information-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
Product colors: Basic Black, Blueberry Bushel, Crushed Curry, Fresh Freesia, Garden Green, Melon Mambo

The high-contrast design of these detailed florals and pretty patterns will bring depth and dimension to all your paper crafts.

I had fun using the “spritzing technique” with the Beautiful Butterflies Bundle.
Stampin' Up! Beautiful Butterflies Bundle-visit juststampin.com for inspiration and ordering information-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
The Beautiful Butterflies Bundle includes the Beautiful Butterflies Stamp Set and the Beautiful Butterflies Hybrid Embossing Folder (with 12 Dies). The Beautiful Butterflies Hybrid Embossing Folder is a great way to bring fluttery, delicate designs to your paper crafts! There’s so much you can do with this set! One of the dies cuts out a folded butterfly-shaped card. Cut it out, then layer an embossed butterfly on top for depth. Here’s a closer look at the dies!

Here’s how I did the Spritzing Technique
Supplies: Beautiful Butterflies Hybrid Embossing Folder, Ink, Blending Brushes, Sponge Daubers, Stampin’ Spritzer, Vellum (or cardstock), Stampin’ Cut & Emboss machine
Spritzing Technique with Stampin' Up! Beautiful Butterflies Hybrid Embossing Folder-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
1. Use a Blending Brush to apply Boho Blue ink to the butterfly on the raised part of the embossing folder (the side that has the Stampin’ Up! Logo on the front).
2.  Use sponge daubers to add Melon Mambo and Garden Green ink.
3. Lay the butterfly die in the embossing folder with the cutting edge up. *You will feel it “lock” in place.
4. Spray a couple squirts of water with the Stampin’ Spritzer.
5. Lay the vellum (or cardstock) on top, close the folder, and run it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. It will blend the inks, cut, & emboss at the same time!

6. Allow to dry then add die cut butterfly layer.

I created another butterfly using this technique with cardstock and different colors.
