Last week when I was designing cards in anticipation of move in week I did not realize how significant the butterfly theme would be! I have always loved butterflies and today’s card uses the left over negative space from yesterday’s More Color Challenge card.
Measurements:
BASE: Basic White: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
scored at 4 1/4″
Basic Black: 4″ x 5 1/4″ negative space from
previous project
Real Red: scraps for die cuts

Adhere the 4″ x 5 1/4″ Basic Black layer that has the negative friend sentiment die cut and heart outline cut into it onto the Basic White card base.
Using glue adhere the Real Red friend die cut sentiment into the negative space on the card front.
Adhere the Real Red butterfly trio over the Heart outline on the card front.
I adhered the Iridescent Adhesive Backed Discs to the card front but decided i needed a few more details – sometimes card making is a fluid process!
I added a single butterfly die cut below the word friend for a little balance.
I stamped the thank you sentiment in Tuxedo Black Memento ink onto a Stylish Shapes banner die and cutting off the left hand edge to match up with the edge of the black cardstock I adhered the sentiment strip over the heart outline to finish off this simply stamped card!
I love being able to make hand made cards – this week there are so many wonderful people doing so many kind things for our family and the way I will thank them all is with a little piece of my heart and a little piece of my art!
Hope you are able to stamp this week in the midst of your life and pass along something beautiful to someone you love – one stamp at a time!
Happy Stampin’
