What do you get when you combine the Bitty Butterfly punch, a Doily and some Washi Tape?  A really cute card of course!

washi-helloThis cute card was part of a set and a cute little box (I’ll show the rest later – still need pictures of those) that we made over the summer.  It was a project that my friend Cindy created for our retreat just before convention.  I made this version for a some of my classes here at home.  I used a different stamp set for the greeting (I didn’t have the one Cindy used).  And I believe Cindy use card stock for the little butterfly and I used designer paper.  Here are some details on how to put this card together.

  •   Punch a strip of Daffodil Delight card stock with the Scallop Border punch.  Attach to a Whisper White card stock layer.
  • Attach a piece of Designer Series paper – this one is from the Gingham Garden collection
  • Attach the paper doily
  • Add a piece of the Gingham Garden Washi tape (the floral pattern) – over the doily along the top of the deisgner paper.  Trim at the edges of the Whisper White card stock.
  • Attach the white later to a Melon Mambo card base.
  • Create tag – stamp greeting and notch the ends.  Add Baker’s Twine to the end and tie in a bow.  Attach to the front of the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals
  • punch butterfly using the Bitty Butterfly punch (it’s part of the bundle special this month) add to card front
  • finish with the Rhinestones

I love that all of the Stampin’ Up! products coordinate together so well – the Gingham Garden collection includes the Designer paper and the Washi tape – it makes it easy to use together on a project.

Enjoy the rest of your day!
