Antisocial Butterfly Card

Greetings! It's Tuesday, so you've got Kathi here today to share a project with you. This week's theme is Butterflies. True confession time: whereas my online persona is outgoing, in reality I'm a total introvert — an antisocial butterfly if you will. Therefore, Visible Image's Antisocial Butterfly Clear Polymer Stamp Set totally appealed to me because I loved the sentiments and loved the beautiful butterflies.

Here's my card!


Nocturne VersaFine Clair Ink by Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko was used to stamp the Monarch Butterfly from the Antisocial Butterfly Clear Polymer Stamp Set by Visible Image onto a panel of Mixed Media Cardstock. 

The same butterfly was also stamped using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink by Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko onto a small panel of white Copic-friendly cardstock. Copic markers were used to color the butterfly on the small panel. It was then fussy-cut, edged with a black marker, and set aside.

Sundance Elements Ink by Lavinia Stamps was randomly smooshed onto a piece of acetate packaging, spritzed with water, using the Fine Spray Mister by Spectrum Noir and smooshed onto the stamped mixed media panel. This process was repeated with Confetti, and Russet Orange Elements Inks by Lavinia Stamps until I was happy with the ink coverage. The panel was misted with water to blend the inks and add a mottled look.The panel was heat set.

Watercolor pens were used to color the butterfly and the bubbles. White gel pen was used to add highlights to the bubbles. A black Glaze pen was used to add dimension to the butterfly's antenna.

The image panel was cut with the larger cutting die from the Frayed Frames Die Set 26 by AALL and Create. then Nocturne and Summertime VersaFine Clair Inks by Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko were used to stamp the sentiments from the set onto it.

The Copic-colored fussy-cut butterfly's body was adhered with glue over its counterpart on the image panel. Dimensional foam adhesive was used to pop up its wings.

Black cardstock was cut with the the largest die from the Skycrossed Paradise Die Set 34 by AALL and Create then the image panel was adhered to the die-cut. The combination of the black die-cut and the image panel was adhered to an orange card.
