Butterfly Brilliance

After creating my video for my recent post on duel embossing techniques I wanted to try using the Butterfly Brilliance Stamp set that I mentioned my friend Alisa Tilsner used. I wanted the colors to be brighter those so I decided on more of a rainbow look. The card on the right uses the same wet embossing technique I showed how to use in the video.

The card on the left however is slightly different as the set doesn’t have an embossing folder but instead has a matching set of dies. The set has a set of dies that will cut out all the stamped images and it also has lined butterflies. For this project I used the blending brushes the same way to create the background and then used both dies to cut out the butterflies and place them over the background. I will be honest I love how this turned out.

I created this before I found out about the retiring list, however once I found the set and dies were retiring I new I need to share it right away. I’ve included a list of the retiring items so you purchase them before it’s to late.

Dual Embossing Techniques

Today I wanted to share a video where I show you how to create a similar card using two different types of embossing techniques. I’ve created the cards using a wet embossing technique called emboss resist and a dry embossing technique where the ink is applied to the embossing folder. What is cool about this technique is that I used the same process on both cards to get a different yet similar look. Which look is your favorite.

Butterfly Gala Sponged Butterfly Card

I wanted to share this quick and easy card with you today. It was created using Stampin’ Up!’s Butterfly Gala stamp set. In the second card and saying I used sponge daubers to apply the ink to give it a more blended look. The 1st card is just stamping directly on the card with the ink and the second card is using the the sponge technique.

I created a quick video to show you how simple it is to create this fun blended look. I really like the extra dimension it seems to give to the stamped image.

Here’s a close up of the difference between the two different butterfly looks.

This is what it looks like when you stamp directly onto the images without using the sponge daubers.

This is the same image using the sponge daubers to ink up the background stamps for the butterfly rather than stamping directly into the ink. Using this technique I was able to add a little bit of each color to the stamp and kind of blend them. You’ll also notice that the colors aren’t quite as bold and defined using this technique giving it a more subtle feel.

Here’s a close up of the greeting image using the sponge daubers to ink up the stamp.

Eastern Palace Suite

We were able to pre-order some products from the catalog so I’ve had some time to play with them. I hope you enjoy these samples. They also feature some of the new in-colors.

Here’s some samples that I’ve created with my pre-order and I’m having a difficult time trying to decided what I want to order first now that I can order anything from the new catalog. I would love to hear what your favorite new items are from the catalog. All of these samples were created using the new Eastern Palace Suite on pages 18-19 of the new catalog.

This first one is my own creation. I was struggling with this set so I spent time on-line to get other ideas. A big thanks to everyone who is willing to share.

The next two were cases from other talented demonstrators. I’m grateful for all the wonderful samples that others are willing to share for all of us. I hope you will enjoy my twist on these fun projects. Sorry I don’t have there names to give them credit, but I do thank them. For this card I used the Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies to create the circles in the center project.

This last card is created by using the aqua painter to brush ink on watercolor paper. This is then allowed to show through the intricate designs of the Easter Palace Suites dies. These dies are fun because there are so many different designs you can make from the few designs just by mixing and matching them.
