Creating History Together Butterfly Card - CCDT 1820

'Creating Memories Together Butterfly Card'

Hello Everyone,

Welcome to my next project for Couture Creations using the
 'Steampunk Dreams' Collection.

There is a great mix of interesting elements in this collection - you could so easily create a card for a female or a male, a layout or off-the-page project.  The butterflies are like no other I have seen before, so I just had to have a play with them.  Along with each collection I also like to try new techniques, so I experimented with multi-coloured pigment inks and clear embossing powder.

I hope it inspires you to give it a go

My finished Butterfly card

The components used for this project

Here I heat embossed the sentiment with white embossing powder onto heat resistant acetate.  On the butterfly stamp, I combined different coloured pigment inks then I added clear embossing powder to highlight the detail.  I also created another added interest.

All the elements prepped and ready for assembly. 
My card size is  4 1/8" x 5 7/8" (1/4 of an A4 sheet).
My matting piece is 1/8" smaller on all sides.  The peeled paint paper was cut to the exact length of the matt piece.  The Mesh Die was cut from the glitter card -I kept a few of the circle off-cuts.  The butterfly and cogs were from the same patterned paper.

I attached the pieces to the card with a mix of glue, double-sided tape and foam tape.  After every piece was in place I tucked and glued some aqua/blue sisal fibres and some self-adhesive mesh plasters tape under the butterfly.
