A quick share for you today ... of a very simple card... so #simplestamping as per the SU! challenge...
But a card that is a real eye catcher on display...
Just a bit of stamping... a die cut aperture ... and a punch...
Standard A6 card in Thick Whisper White... Granite Gray cardstock panel (10 x 14.3cm H) with a Stitched Rectangle die cut from the centre...
Overstamped randomly with Gray Granite Very Vintage (host stamp set) flower spray
Basic Black greeting (from Dandelion Wishes) stamped through aperture
And a punched butterfly from the Sale A Bration Botanical Butterfly papers added to finish...
And a tip for you.... I shape all my butterflies after punching... just using my trusty bone folder and fingers!!
I tend to hold the butterfly body section/area in my fingers and then stretch the paper slightly from that centre axis using the bone folder so that it takes on a gradual curved shape out from the body... I then adjust my hold... and repeat from the other side...
And using a Stampin Pierce Mat... I then lay the punched part down ... face down... and apply light pressure along the body area/line to flatten it out...so that I then have a flat area to apply my glue...
