Flourishing Phrases - DSC#191

Hi Stampers,

I can't believe it's time for another DOstamper Thursday DSC#191 Sketch Pad Challenge!  For this weeks card I decided to use a butterfly in place of the pink flower on the face of the design sheet. I used my Flourishing Phrases Clear-Mount Stamp Set for that beautiful sentiment on the front of the card, and the Butterflies Thinlits Dies  for that cute little butterfly.

Do you recognize that beautiful scallop die cut on the top layer?  That scallop was done with the retired Striped Scallop Thinlits Die, that I placed on an angle on the top card layer.  The butterfly was cut out of the front layer so the Soft Suede Cardbase would show through the inside of the butterfly.

The finishing touches were to add the two Rhinestone Basic Jewels Embellishments in the middle of the butterfly and two  gems from Metallics Sequin Assortment.

Basic Instructions:.

• Cut Soft Suede CS base 8-1/2" x 11" and score at 5-1/2".
• Cut Very Vanilla CS @ 4" x 5-1/4"
•  Using the Soft Suede CS cut out the Striped Scallop Thinlits Die. Attach to the Very Vanilla CS layer using the Fine-Tip Glue Pen, then cut off the excess.
• Using the Striped Scallop Thinlits Die, cut out the butterfly from the Very Vanilla CS layer 
• Using Soft Suede Classic Stampin' Pad, stamp the sentiment using the Flourishing Phrases Clear-Mount Stamp Set.
• Attach the Rhinestone Basic Jewels Embellishments in the middle of the butterfly and two  gems from Metallics Sequin Assortment.
• Use Stampin' Dimensionals  to attach the Very Vanilla CS layer to the Soft Suede CS Cardbase.
• Envelope and Custom Envelope Liner were both made with the Envelope Punch Board
