Hello crafty friends! Welcome to the Waffle Flower April Release Blog Hop. I'm so happy and honored to guest design for Waffle Flower for the month of April. Today, I am highlighting a few of the products from this beautiful release.
For my first card, I started with an A2-sized white cardstock and ran it through the die cut machine with the Pop-up Butterflies Panel Die. I then inked through the Duo-tone Butterfly Stencil with Kitsch Flamingo Distress Oxide Ink in the middle and inked blended the sides with Milled Lavender Distress Oxide Ink. I did this technique for both layers. I heat embossed the sentiments in gold and cut them with the coordinating dies. I love that these come with coordinating die cuts! I cut a few pieces to stack for dimension. Then, I scored the centers of each butterfly and folded the wings towards the center. I wanted a different color in the open spaces of the butterfly wings, so I cut an A2-sized gold glitter cardstock and glued it under the card panel. To add more dimension, I foam mounted the panel onto a card base that measures 4.5" x 5.75". Lastly, I added jewels here and there for interest and shine.
For my second card, I inked through the Duo-tone Butterfly Stencil. I wanted to have two colors and I chose Kitsch Flamingo Distress Oxide Ink for the first layer and Milled Lavender for the second layer. I then splattered some gold paint for added interest. Next, I heat embossed the sentiment and cut it with the coordinating die. I then added jewels for some shine. Lastly, I adhered the card panel onto a pink card base that measures 4.5" x 5.75".
