No Stamping Required!


This card was made for my Stamp Club challenge of making a card with dies only, no stamps. That may sound easy but when you always use stamps on your cards, it can be a challenge!  
If you don't belong to a stamp club, I recommend that you find one to join or if there isn't one, start a club of your own like I did.  It's such a joy to get together with other ladies who share the love of stamping and understand how exciting it is to buy a new glue haha!

For my card I used the Square Combo #1 OPC Die from Rubbernecker Stamps for the circles, it was run through my die cutting machine once with craft colored cardstock and you get all of these shapes shown below, to use on other projects.


The butterflies are the 2 part Butterfly #3 Die from Rubbernecker Stamps, it gives you the solid image and the intricately cut image.


The intricate image was cut out of white cardstock and the solid out of pink decorative paper.  I curved the wings of the white piece and glued only the body to the pink image so you get a 3D effect. 

I don't know what company the Hello is from but it was cut from black cardstock.

Now to assemble it, Cracked Pistachio Distress Ink was rubbed on my craft mat, spritzed with water and picked up with a wet brush.  It was then splattered on a white card.  The circles, butterflies and hello, were then glued down using Glitter Art Glue.  A strip of the same pink decorative paper as the butterfly was glued to the bottom with a strip of black and white striped paper glued to that.  To finish it off, pink Nuvo Drops were randomly added.
