ScorPal Butterfly Card

 Hi everyone, it's time for a new Scor-Pal challenge.  Just create a project with more than one score.


Supplies:  ScorPal
Cardstock
Pattern paper


This sweet card is created with left over scraps.
Cut base cardstock to fit card front and adhere.
Using 2 different pattern papers, cut a 4" square from each.
Cut each into 2 triangular shapes.
Place the triangles on the card front overlapping them and leaving a square in the center.
Cut 1/4" strips of black cardstock and adhere where the edges meet.


Die cut assorted butterflies and adhere them to the front panel.
Add gems for some sparkle.


For the interior, cut pattern paper to fit the card base and adhere.
Cut a cardstock strip 1/2" x 4 1/2".
Score at 1/2", 1 1/2", 4".
Adhere the 1/2" scored portion to one side of the card's center line.
Fold the panel on the center line and place adhesive to the other 1/2" scored portion.
Fold the card so you have a pop up panel.
Die cut floral strips and butterflies, adhering each to the strip.
When the card unfolds, the panel pops.

Add a sentiment to the card base.


Thanks for stopping by.

Etching Butterflies

It's the end of February, but it still feels like winter.  We had a beautiful day recently and it got me thinking about Spring so I created a jar of butterflies using etchall dip 'n etch liquid.


Place butterfly stickers on the jar.  Burnish them to be sure they are fully adhered. 


Fill the jar with stones to weigh it down in the dip 'n etch.


Allow the jar to sit 15 minutes in the dip 'n etch.  


Etchall is reusable so pour the dip 'n etch back into its original container.  Dip 'n etch starts out clear and once it's exposed to air and heat, it tends to darken; however, that does not imped it's etching abilities.  As you can see my dip 'n etch is quite dark.



Rinse the etched jar and pat dry.


To finish, add a strip of ribbon around the edge and flowers on top.


I'm not yet sure what I'll put in my butterfly jar, but it's got me thinking of Spring.

Thanks for stopping by.
