Handmade Butterfly Birthday Card

by 20 Comments

I rarely make 6×6 cards, but I should!  I made this butterfly birthday card using a sketch from Simon Says Stamp.  Since I wanted to have many layers,  I knew I was going to need a bigger card.

 

Make a stunning butterfly birthday card using hot pink and black paper, a butterfly rubberstamp, and a birthday stamp.

 

 

I like the layout of his card.  It really allows you to use lots of different patterned papers together.  I used a retired paper pack from Stampin’ Up.  The whole paper pack was the same color, but I wanted to add some accents.  I paired it with black cardstock, and a little bit of olive green.

Butterfly rubberstamps are so popular right now. They are everywhere I look.  The Birthday Wishes stamp is from the Inkadinkado Garden Party set.  It’s one of those stamp sets that gets often.

I love these colors so they were really easy to work with.  Bright pink and black always make a bold statement.

  13. You did a great job with the inspiration photo and colors! 6×6 is a really big creative area – I’d probably take a day or two to finish a card that size! LOL
