Hi Stampers!
Today’s cards were made using the CATCHING BUTTERFLIES stamp set. This stamp set can be found on page 6 of the STAMPIN’ UP!®️ SALE-A-BRATION BROCHURE, or you can get a look at it HERE.
This stamp set can be yours for free with a $50 Stampin’ Up! Product Purchase now through 28 February 2022. For today’s cards I also used several different techniques: framed window, paper piecing, fussy cutting, and reversed stamping.
Let’s take a look at the cards.

SWEET THOUGHTS CARD
Outside of Card
Inside of Card
As I have stated many time, the Stampin’ Up! catalogs are great resources for inspiration. This card was CASEd (Copy And Share Everything) from the sample card on page 6 of the Sale-A-Bration Brochure. I changed the colors, added a frame around the window, and paper pieced the girl’s dress using a pattern from the SUNSHINE & RAINBOWS DSP, another SALE-A-BRATION offering.
SUPPLIES FOR THE CARD
* Flirty Flamingo card base
* Two pieces of Basic White cardstock cut at 4” x 5 1/4” (one for the outside and one for the inside) plus scraps to stamp and fussy cut two net images
* Daffodil Delight cardstock, enough to cut two frames
* Small piece of DSP to paper piece dress

This next card is inspired by the previous card. It features a paper pieced dress like the previous card. Instead of a window card the focal image is matted on a die cut scalloped circle. The scalloped circle is die cut from the center of one of the Gorgeous Grape pieces of cardstock. The die cut hole will be covered up. The focal image was die cut using the partial die cutting technique.

The next two cards are basically the inside panel of the first card. Once again the dresses are paper pieced. The focal images are stamped on Basic White cardstock, then the net image is stamped again on a scrap piece of Basic White, fussy cut, and placed over the net of the focal image using dimensionals.

This card panel was created just like the one for the previous card, then it was die cut using the Stitched Rectangles Dies. The background on the card base was created using an image from the stamp set and Magenta Madness ink. I inked the stamp, stamped the card base twice, the reink Ed the stamp and repeated the process until the front of the card base was filled in.
