Stamp dimension 3D butterfly with Copic coloring ~ card tutorial

  Today, I am sharing Thanksgiving greetings using beautiful Autumn leaves, a butterfly and a sentiment.  This card arrangement was just what I was hoping for.

Sentiment:

Thinking of you this Thanksgiving season.

The leaf is a large stamp.  So, I decided to stamp portions of it along the bottom to make room for the sentiment and the pretty 3D butterfly.

Helpful tips:

To create this, begin by stamping the leaves, the sentiment and the butterfly onto a piece of cardstock using Copic friendly ink.  Also, stamp another butterfly onto vellum using StazOn black ink or vellum friendly ink and allow it to dry completely.  Next, color in the stamping and trim or die-cut the card front.  Also, color the second butterfly on the opposite side of the vellum stamping.  Then, score a fold line on the vellum butterfly.  Next, onto the card base, apply light link blending for background shading.  Then, adhere the card front over the ink blending.  Also, adhere the vellum butterfly over the first butterfly, at the bottom portion only, stamped side up.  Fold the wing out for a 3D effect.  Finally, add sequins, to finish.
