Butterflies to Soothe the Soul

Project Inspiration: Butterfly Thinking of You by Brenda Noelke

Project Inspiration: Raindrops by Bobbi Lemanski

Rebecca’s Transformation Tuesday | Happy Halloween

October 1, 2019      Papertrey Ink      Leave a Comment

 

“It seems funny to think that the original card, with its pretty pastel leaves against a light background, would make for a spooky Halloween card, but it really does!  The way the Lovely Leaves die cuts and Fall For Foliage border frame the center of the card, it’s like peering into a window.  When the background is black, covered in a spiderweb, and the leaves have turned to a late autumn rusty orange color, it’s more like looking into a window in a haunted house!”

Butterflies have a way of making any card feel ext Butterflies have a way of making any card feel extra special, don’t you think? I’ve been loving the Winged Serenity Mini Stamp Set for quick, elegant cards. Sometimes I layer soft watercolors, sometimes I leave them just as they are, both look so serene!

A little tip: stamp a few extra butterflies and tuck them away for those last-minute cards. They’re timeless and go with everything.?🦋

✨ For product link just comment the word "June"!

🎄Christmas in July - Day 10 🎄 Nothing captu 🎄Christmas in July - Day 10 🎄

Nothing captures the meaning of the season quite like a handmade card centered on the true Christmas story. This nativity-inspired design features the powerful verse from Isaiah 9:6 as the focal point, framed by a rustic stable, shining star, and peaceful palms. ✨

We love how the snowy hills add a soft shimmer, guiding the eye straight to baby Jesus nestled in the manger, a gentle reminder of hope and joy. Whether you’re creating cards for church friends, loved ones, or holiday outreach, this design shares the heart of Christmas in the most beautiful way. 💗

Clean, classic, and full of festive charm — this design proves that simple can still be stunning. The bold ornament anchors the design, while the bright holiday greenery adds that pop of color and seasonal cheer. And here’s the part we love: the Merry Christmas sentiment is die cut directly from the stamped panel, then popped up to create dimension without losing the flow of the design. It’s subtle, clever, and gives the card a polished, professional touch. Add a few scattered sequins finish it off with just the right touch of sparkle.✨
