Sending Love on Butterfly Wings

Hey everybody! Happy Wednesday evening – I’m here with my second post today. I hope you’re having a beautiful week and it’s warming up a bit where you are, with Spring on the way! I’m up on the Love From Lizi blog today with a tutorial for making a tented easel card featuring the Butterfly Wings Stamp Set from our newest release – and you may recognize this card from our new release blog hop on Instagram last week. Yep, I’m double-dipping, lol! I also used some of our mirror cardstock, an additional stamp set, some nested cutting dies, and the centers from the purple butterfly border peel-off stickers. And you’ve probably also noticed that this is one of my favorite fun folds and I’m posting another one within the course of a week!

The measurements for this card are as follows:
1. Card base is 4-1/4″ x 11″, scored at 4-1/4″ and 8-1/2″, making the folded card 4-1/4″ square.
2. Front layering panel is 4″ x 4″.
3. Bottom layering panel is 2-1/4″ x 4″.
4. White layering panel for the inside cut at 4″ x 4″. 

The card base and the stopper/bottom sentiment layering panel were cut from CutCardStock Amaranth cardstock and patterned paper layering panels from the Love You 6×6 Specialty Paper Pack. I used the Stitched Label Nested Cutting Dies to cut the background for the butterfly from Amaranth and Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock. I used a strip of purple butterfly border peel-off stickers across the bottom of the easel portion, keeping just the inside tiny butterflies and removing the border strip.

I stamped the large butterfly from the Butterfly Wings stamp set, colored it with Copics and fussy cut it. I adhered the body flat to the label shaped background and popped the wings up on adhesive foam squares. I adhered a piece of purple mirror cardstock from the Matte Mirror Pastel Specialty Cardstock Bundle beneath the Amaranth piece, stamped a sentiment from the Butterfly Wings stamp set in Versafine Onyx Black ink and then popped the stopper up on a 1″ adhesive foam strip.

The inside panel was cut from 80# Solar White cardstock and embellished with a strip from the Love You paper pack. I stamped a sentiment from the Simply Amazing Stamp Set in black ink and adhered the panel to the inside of the card base, which completed the card.
