Night of Navy Butterflies
TIP: The set of butterflies come in 2 thinlits dies. The first cuts the solid butterflies, the second cuts the outline of the butterflies. It is best to use darker-colored card stock for the outline butterflies.
1. Cut the first set of butterflies using the solid thinlit die from Butterfly Beauty and the Big Shot out of Mint Macaron card stock. Save the piece of Mint Macaron with the stencil-cut butterflies to use in the second card.
2. Cut the overlay butterflies using the outline thinlit die and the Big Shot out of Night of Navy card stock. TIP: Adding an adhesive backing to the cut-out will make it easier to secure the outline to the solid butterflies. To do this, add a piece of Adhesive Sheet that has been cut to the same size to the Night of Navy card stock. Cut out using the Big Shot and the outline butterfly thinlit. Run it through several times to get a good cut image. This is
an intricate die, so adding a shim or using the Precision Base Plate may help you get a good cut image. Release the die from the card base using the Big Shot Die Brush and Foam Pad or using a Paper Piercing Tool.
3. Peel off the other side of the backing on the Adhesive Sheet and place the outline butterflies over the solid butterflies, starting at the top and securing as you move down. You will be left with the plastic backing from the Adhesive Sheet. Save it to use on the second card.
4. Cut a piece of Garden Impressions 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper to measure 3 3/4" x 5". Attach to Night of Navy mat. Attach to Powder Pink card base.
5. Apply small amounts of Tombow Multi-purpose Glue to the back of the butterflies and attach to the card front.
6. Stamp greeting from Beauty Abounds on a scrap piece of Mint Macaron card stock using Night of Navy ink. Punch out using a 1" circle punch. Attach to Night of Navy mat that has been punched using 1 1/4" circle punch. Attach to the card front using a Mini Dimensional to pop it up. Add Mint Macaron Faceted Dots to complete.
Recycle and Reuse Butterflies
1. Attach a piece of Garden Impressions Designer Series Paper to the back of the Mint Macaron cut-out from the first card. Attach to Night of Navy card base.

1. Stamp dots from Beauty Abounds on a piece of Whisper White card front measuring 3 3/4" x 4" using Mint Macaron, Powder Pink, and So Saffron inks. Attach to Night of Navy mat measuring 4" x 4 1/4".
2. Stamp greetings on a scrap piece of Whisper White card stock using Night of Navy ink. I did not want the ellipsis on either greeting, so I placed a piece of scotch tape over them, inked up the stamp, removed the tape, then stamped. TIP: Be sure to remove the scotch tape before stamping, or you'll have a splotchy mess! Stamp butterflies using Night of Navy ink. Color in using So Saffron and Powder Pink Stampin' Write Markers.
3. Punch greeting using a 2 1/2" circle punch, or the Big Shot and Circles Framelits Die. To create the ring, punch a circle out of Night of Navy card stock using a 2 1/2" circle punch or the Big Shot and Circles Framelits Die. Place a slightly larger circle punch, or framelits die around the circle and cut.
4. Stamp butterflies on a scrap piece of Whisper White card stock using Night of Navy ink. Color in using So Saffron and Powder Pink Stampin' Write Markers. Cut out using the Big Shot and coordinating Butterfly Beauty Framelit Die.

Beauty Abounds Partial Embossed and Die Cut Butterflies
|
Use the Big Shot Embossing Mats to emboss, rather than cut the butterflies. For this card, the left side of the butterflies is embossed, while the right side of the butterflies is cut.
2. To cut out the outline of the butterflies, attach a piece of Night of Navy card stock to piece of Adhesive Sheet. Cut out using the Big Shot and the outline butterfly thinlit. Run it through several times to get a good cut image. This is an intricate die, so adding a shim or using the Precision Base Plate may help you get a good cut image. Release the die from the card base using the Big Shot Die Brush and Foam Pad or using a Paper Piercing Tool.
3. Remove the backing on the Adhesive sheet, and carefully place the outline over the embossed and cut butterflies.
4. Stamp the dots using Night of Navy ink on a piece of Mint Macaron card stock measuring 4" x 5 1/4". Attach to the inside of the card.
5. To make the pop-up tab for the inside, stamp the greeting and butterfly using Night of Navy ink on a piece of Powder Pink card stock measuring 2 1/2" x 1 1/4". Score 1/4" in on each side. Fold down along the score lines creating tabs. Then, score the middle of the tab at 1". Fold the center score line up. Attach Tear and Tape Adhesive to the end tabs. Remove the backing and attach the pop up to the inside of the card, lining up the center score line
with the score line of the card base.
