Happy Saturday! Today I'm sharing some details about my card that features Altenew's beautiful Craft Your Life Project Kit: Wings & Petals. I love monarch butterflies! Each October they migrate through our area here in Texas and I always think of my mother. We would always tell each other when we saw the first monarchs passing through. I miss her, but I know she would love this card!
The Craft Your Life Project Kit is one of several of Altenew's monthly subscriptions. The reason this particular one is my favorite is because it includes a few of my most favorite products! I love 3D embossing folders and having the layering stencils to color the embossed image is awesome! You can purchase this Kit separately, but if you subscribe, you will save $16. Check out this subscription and the other options on the Altenew website.
First I die cut the Wings & Petals butterfly dies from Sunkissed and Jet Black cardstock. I used blending brushes to add shading with Autumn Blaze and Orange Cream inks (Warm & Cozy collection) to the solid die cut. After gluing the black top layer to each piece, I glued them together.
I embossed white cardstock with the Wings & Petals Botanical 3D embossing folder and trimmed it to 4" x 4-¼". Then I stamped the sentiment from the Wings & Petals stamp set at the bottom of an A2 card base with Obsidian black ink.
I added a strip of Jet Black cardstock to separate the embossed cardstock from the sentiment. The Intertwining Leaves layers are die cut from Grass Field and Hunter Green cardstock.
I used foam tape to adhere the butterflies to the card.
I absolutely love the details of the Wings & Petals butterfly dies!! Thank you so much for stopping by. I hope you have a wonderful and crafty weekend!
Thank you for using my affiliate links to shop (never any additional cost to you)!
So sweet! We had a monarch butterfly release on my daughters first birthday. Every time I see one in the yard I wonder if it's a relative of those.
