Hello friends!  This is Design Team member Crystal Komara here with you today sharing a slimline card featuring the beautiful Just Butterflies digital stamp set.  I love to create cards using flowers and butterflies, they are probably among my favorite.  I also enjoy creating slimline cards.  Have you jumped on the slimline card trend?  They’re easy to make (though consume a little more paper) but if you size yours to 8 1/2″ x 3 1/2″ it will fit inside a regular #10 business envelope and require no additional postage!  Plus, it gives you more space to create on!

Card details: 

The base of this slimline card is made from 80 lb. Neenah Solar White Smooth cardstock.  Using a slimline die with three circular holes, I created the base frame.  Behind the three circles I adhered some multi-colored plaid designer paper.  I printed the Just Butterflies digital stamp set onto Neenah White cardstock and colored the images with Copic markers.  I kept the coloring very simple and only used two colors for each butterfly. I fussy cut each butterfly and adhered it to the card using 3M foam adhesive for added dimension.  I printed the sentiment “wishing you a colorful day” from the Pencil Me digital stamp set.  Lastly, I added a coat of clear Wink of Stella to the butterflies for added sparkle and tiny dot of white gel pen for more dimension.

 

Thanks for visiting and have a wonderfully creative day!  For more inspiration, you can follow me on my websiteInstagramFacebook and on my YouTube channel.
