Another ‘WOW’ card swap with the Beautiful Butterflies stained glass technique

Today I have another stunning Team card swap made by Tracey featuring Window Sheets. She featured the Beautiful Butterflies bundle seen here:

Save

Her colors include Shy Shamrock with Petunia Pop, Black, White & Gold embossing. 

Here's how she made this card:

1. Texture the White layer with the Hybrid embossing folder; add to the Petunia layer and the card base. 
2. Ink the butterfly image in Versamark and stamp on the Window sheet. Heat emboss with Gold embossing powder. Die-cut with the coordinating die.  *she did say some of the embossing powder on the edge frayed off when it went through the die-cut.  
3. Color the back of the butterfly with Blends markers.  Adhere to the White cardstock layer with Foam Strip adhesive in the center only. Add the center 'body' die-cut.
4. Heat emboss the greeting onto the Black strip with White embossing powder.  Finish with gems. 

Here's the full bundle that includes stamps, dies and a Hybrid embossing folder. What is a 'Hybrid Embossing folder?  It's where you can cut AND emboss/texture at the same time!

And look how she finished the inside!  She used the Baby Wipe technique to achieve a multi-colored butterfly.

Thanks so much for your gorgeous card Tracey!

  Today I’m sharing a neat card made by Candace; my talented team member. She used the Gears & Textures bundle to make this:

  You can see the Gears & Textures bundle here. It’s so special & unique and perfect for masculine cards. But as you can see in Candace’s card it’s great for gals too!

  She made her own paper with the stamps in the set. She used Pretty in Pink, Night of Navy & Flirty Flamingo inks. She added die-cut gears from the Metallic Textured Specialty papers seen here.

  If you want to make a card like this start out with a 4 1/4″ X 11″ piece of card stock scored at 5 1/2″. Trim off a 1 1/2″ piece from one end. Then trim off another 2 1/2″ piece which is the vertical center piece. The stamped paper layers are 1 1/4″ X 4″ on the top & bottom and the center is 2 1/4″ X 4″.

  Thanks for the amazing fun fold card Candace!

• Sweet Encircled with Love Valentine’s card

  January 27, 2026

  Tracey created this striking card with the Made with Love designer paper:

  Save

  I love the abstract designer paper pieces she added to her White layer. Then to make sure the greeting was the focal point she added the top square of DSP. Perfect!
  This is a great example of taking leftover pieces of coordinating DSP and layering them up. A great way to use scraps!

  She used the Encircled with Love stamp set seen here along with the 1 3/4″ & 1 7/8″ circle punches. Her colors include Real Red, Flirty Flamingo with White which she got from the pretty designer paper.

  See the Made with Love designer paper here.

  Your card inspired me to look at and use my DSP scraps Tracey! Thank you.
