Laura's Stamping Place: Simple Butterfly Gala Card Tutorial

Gingham Gala Suite

Spring will be here before you know it and the Butterfly Gala Stamp Set and Butterfly Duet Punch bundle is the perfect pairing to create your spring and summer cards. Here are some sample cards using some of the items on page 34-35 of the 2019 Occasions Catalog.

I am making thank you cards for my customers and am having so much fun using the Butterfly Gala stamp set and Butterfly Duet Punch (page 35 of the 2019 Occasions catalog.

For this card I used:

Card base - 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" piece of Grapefruit Grove cardstock from the Gingham Gala cardstock pack (page 35 - Occasions catalog #148555).
Butterfly Gala stamp set and Butterfly Duet Punch bundle (page 35 - Occasions catalog #150599).
A piece of Gingham Gala designer series paper for matting behind the sentiment (page 35 - Occasions catalog #148554).
Whisper White cardstock for the sentiment #100730
Grapefruit Grove Classic Stamp Pad #147142
Daffodil Delight Classic Stamp Pad #126944
Lemon Lime Twist Classic Stamp Pad #147145

Pretty up your cardstock by randomly stamping butterfly images all over the front of your card base. Here I used Grapefruit Grove.

Next I stamped butterfly images using the Butterfly Gala Stamp set and the stamp pad colors listed above. Then I punched them out using the Butterfly Duet punch. Both are part of the bundle on page 35 - #150599.

Next I stamped the sentiment from the Butterfly Gale stampset in Highland Heather Classic ink #147103.

I adhered the butterflies to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue #110755. Once the glue dried, I lifted up the wings a bit. I also glued the sentiment to the Gingham designer series paper and then popped it up with few Stampin' Dimensionals #104430.

All the products that I used are listed below. You may click on any of the images for more details.
