paper butterflies Archives - Inkspiration Cards

The new catalogues are here! So lots of new, fun things to get crafty with! And the new Beautiful Bokeh Designer Series Paper pack from the Beautiful Butterflies suites is one of my favourites! Lots of great colours in this patterned paper pack. And I love the bokeh design. This is a great patterned paper to use as the focal point of your card design. And that’s what I did with this design.

I’m using the Berry Burst design for this card. So I used Berry Burst ink to stamp my sentiment from the new Hugs for Love stamp set. Around the sentiment I stamped a fun border from the same set with Tuxedo Black Memento ink. Then I used the coordinating punch and popped it up with some Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Behind the Designer Series Paper I have a Basic Black card mat. It really helps that Berry Burst Designer Series Paper stand out. And the card base is Basic White.

On top of the Designer Series Paper I didn’t add too much. It doesn’t need much. I popped up a couple of Paper Butterfly Accents by cutting some Mini Stampin Dimensionals in half. Then I added a few Brushed Brass Butterflies.

I just love the Beautiful Bokeh Designer Series Paper! It’s super easy to make beautiful handmade cards with a pack of patterned paper like this.

Check out another card I made using the Paper Butterfly Accents here. And stay tuned for more from this suite.

Now I’m not sure if this is what you call this card design. But that’s what I’m calling it… a Peek-a-Boo card. I thought it’d be fun to use the 2 3/8″ Circle Punch to make a window of sorts and then have something peeking through.

I’m using Highland Heather for my card base because it goes really nicely with the Perennial Lavender Designer Series Paper. But before I punched out my window I adhered the piece of DSP to the cardstock. That way the window lines up on both. Don’t worry about adding adhesive to the centre! This way you’ll have two circles that you can use for another project.

Also on the front I added a sentiment from the Something Fancy stamp set using Highland Heather ink. Then I die cut it using the Something Fancy dies and popped it up with some Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside (and peeking through the window) I have some of the taller florals from the Flowers of Beauty stamp set. I stamped these with Highland Heather ink too. Then I added a small Paper Butterfly and a few Brushed Brass Butterflies to finish it off.
