Hi there friends!
Today I am sharing the third card made with the same set by White Spruce Studio (link at bottom.)
We all need these kinds of cards from time to time and it is best to just have them on hand. I prefer the "Thinking of you" sentiment because it could work for sympathy, get well, or other things someone is dealing with in life.
Please note: I use Silhouette Studio with a Silhouette Cameo. My instruction is exactly how I made my card. You can change design elements as you please and this will work on other brands of electronic cutters. My supply list is at the bottom including the links to the design files used.
I started this one off by choosing a background that I previously made:
It is just an arch cut out with watercolor. I added the sentiment in black. I have a basket that is overflowing with backgrounds. I love making them but I often fail at trying to use them. I should come up with some challenge for myself to use each one by the end of the year. Should I do that?
For the design -- I opened the file and brought in the colored butterflies. I duplicated them and resized them to give me a variety.
I used the print & cut feature to print on my printer and have my Silhouette Cameo cut them out.
I folded the wings up, applied glue to the underside of the body of the butterfly.
Working with the largest to the smallest of the butterflies, I attached them flying away and with a slight curve at the top.
I added some sequins for sparkle.
That's it!!
Check out the supply list below for all that I used to make this card.
