Acetate Butterflys

Hi everyone. Hope you don't get sick of all these blogs today while I play catch up with them all lol. This is the next card I'll be blogging today.

 What you'll need:

• Bee Crafty winged things - Butterflies set 1
• Bee Crafty XL Script Backdrop
• Bee Crafty Laugh Live Dream Stamp
• Bee Crafty Honey Pearl and Purple Pearl lustre luxe
• Distress Oxide - Wilted Violet
• Black Glitter embossing powder
• Versamark
• Archival Black Ink 
• Chameleon pens
• Sheena card and Black card
• Heatproof acetate
• 8x8 Card Blank

Step 1:

Cut some sheena card down to 6.5x6.5 With your lustre luxe blend with your blending tool or cut and dry foam and blend in stripes onto your card. Then take the script stamp ink up with the wilted violet oxide and stamp all over the card. I didn't use a block I just rolled it over.

Step 2:

Ink up the Laugh Live Dream stamp in versamark and stamp it in the centre of the card. Sprinkle some black glitter or what ever colour you may have embossing powder over the image ( It's best if you use an antistatic power over the card first so the embossing powder doesn't stick to other places of the card ) then heat set it.

Step 3:

Take the whole butterfly and stamp in archival in the position you want them in. Then take a black pen or black sharpie and colour the images in so it's like a silhouette. Next take the half butterfly and stamp them in the gaps.

Step 4:

Stamp the whole butterflies onto some heatproof acetate with versamark and heat set with a black embossing powder. ( Definitely go over the acetate with an antistatic tool/bag ) Cut the butterflies out and colour them in on the back with some Chameleon pens or any alcohol markers or permanent pens you may have. Then stick them over the silhouetted butterflies on the card with a good glue.

Step 5:

Matt your card onto black card. And to layer cut a piece of black card slightly bigger and then blend some lustre luxe round the edges. Then stick it all together and pop onto an 8x8 card blank.


Hope you found this easy to follow and you have ago at embossing onto acetate

Until next time
