 Hello Friends!

I'm so excited to now be designing as part of the Spellbinders Club Kits influencer team!! Today I'm sharing some inspiration for the August Card Kit of the Month called Butterfly Sparkle available to purchase on subscription in the Spellbinders' store now!! 

The Butterfly Sparkle Card Kit!

I've included a YouTube Video Tutorial of the first card below, if you are interested!

I'll give a very quick run down of each card on here but if you want a more detailed look, I highly recommend checking out the YouTube Video linked above!

Card 1

For this card, I used the black and white handwritten paper from the paper pack and mounted it on an A2-sized white card base. The cards that come with the kit have canvas feel which is nice if that's what you prefer, however I like my card insides smooth for stamping. So, instead of overlooking these precut card bases, I cut them in half and use them as panels to mount onto smooth card bases. I cut this one a little smaller at about 4-1/8" and 5- 3/8" at adhered and cut the overhanging bits. I layered and arranged some of the die cut pieces that related to song and birds. I added the rose gold glitter foam "hi" and added the sub-sentiment chipboard sticker. I have to admit those glitter letters are stunning and I love the subtlety of the rose gold colour! Finally, I finished this off with some clear gems.

Card 2

I made this card a 4" x 6.5" mini slimline card ( I never stick to normal dimensions😜). I chose pinks and blacks and focused on the parts of the kit to do with flying, stars, the sky and dreaming! I also heat embossed in white the sentiment from the included stamp set! Finally I added two strips of  Spellbinders Peach glitter foam (available separately in the shop) and some gems.

Card 3

This card is a 5" x 6" card and for this one I stamped out the dandelion whisps from the stamp set in some Versfine Clair Nocturne ink on the flag die cut piece. I die cut the included frame die from the gold mirror cardstock also in the kit. I arranged this with all the other die cuts related to the dandelions.  I added some sentiments from the chipboard stickers and die cuts sets. Finally I added some onyx gems. I made sure to add some pieces with foam to create more dimension and effectively layer these pieces. 

Card 4

For this A2-sized card, I adhered this beautiful floral paper from the paper pad. I picked out the stamps and a few more rectangular shaped die cuts from the kit to organize in a nicely spaced pattern with a space for the sentiment. I added these with foam squares and adhered the chipboard sentiment sticker. Again I added some clear gems for some shine along with a couple glitter foam stars.

Card 5

This is an A2-sized landscape top folding card that I adhered with the polka dot paper from the paper pad. I added a 2" strip of the handwritten paper that was used on the first card. I used the frame die used in card 3 to cut 2 more gold mirror frames and cut them up and adhered the two long edges in a straight line above and below the 2" strip. I used the butterfly dies from the kit to cut the outline from gold mirror cardstock and the background/shadow butterfly from the paper pad in 4 different patterns. I assembled the butterflies and only adhered the center of the gold butter fly piece so the wings would be moveable and have dimension. I added the body of each butterfly in black and adhered the butterflies to the card. I added a couple die cut sentiments with foam and embellished this with those blue iridescent sequins from the kit.

Card 6

For my final card, I had to use the pretty dimensional butterfly stickers included in the kit! These are gorgeous and worth getting this kit for. I cut down the pink, foiled starburst paper from the paper pad so the starburst was centered on the panel. I attached the larger sentiment card included in the die cuts set with foam and adhered two of those pretty butterfly stickers! I added the hot air balloon chipboard sticker and the die cut sub-sentiment. Finally, I embellished this one with some rose gold gems and some more of those glitter foam stars! I think this one is my favourite - tell me which one is yours in the comments.

And that's my inspiration for the Spellbinders Butterfly Sparkle August 2022 card kit! I do plan and making some more cards with this kit that I will feature on my Instagram account - so please follow me there @deezinesbyd. You can also find a short reel there for these creations and others!
