Fluttering in Today is Tuesday’s Talent, Ka Slagoski!

Hello everyone! It’s Ka here today to share a card with you. I haven’t play with the cork butterfly die-cuts from SpiegelMom Scraps, so I thought I take one out and make a birthday card with it. Honestly, I didn’t know what I was going to do with the pretty cork butterfly die-cut, so I just mostly experimented with the arrangements and layers. I felt I didn’t do the cork butterfly much justice at all.

I started the card by die-cutting a white cardstock using a stitched rectangle dies. Then I ran it through the Big Shot machine with a flourishes texture plate. Next, I die-cut a piece of pastel yellow cardstock using an instax Polaroid frame dies and stamped the sentiment from Mama Elephant Fair Feathers set. I layered a piece of scrap paper with Plum Chevron Ribbon and adhered the panel behind the Polaroid frame.

Next, I peeled the sticky back of the cork butterfly die-cut and put it on top of the ribbon. I created a swirly line using some black gemstones. I thought the butterfly look too plain, so I decided to add a black glossy sequin and top the sequin with a tiny gold star. I assembled all the pieces to a purple card base along with a navy burlap string. The entire Polaroid frame was popped up with foam dimensional adhesives. Then I finished the card by clipping a mini clothespin to the string and frame.

I still had a lot of fun experimenting with arrangements and layers even though I felt I didn’t do the cork butterfly justice. I hope you enjoy today’s card anyway and you can go HERE.  if you want to see the full supplies list.
