Project Inspiration: Butterfly Thinking of You by Brenda Noelke

Project Inspiration: Raindrops by Bobbi Lemanski

June 2025 Release Day

Graceful Butterflies + Script Background + Vintage Postage + Penciled Outlines

June 18, 2022      Papertrey Ink      77 Comments

I’m so happy to kick off our June Countdown with you today!  You’ll love what we have in store each day of our countdown.  There’s something for everyone this month!  Let’s get started with Day 1 goodies, including the new Graceful Butterflies stamp set and dies and Script Background Stencils.

Do you love butterflies?  I love how no two butterflies are the same and they are intricate and detailed in such a delicate nature.  The images in the new Graceful Butterflies stamp set are truly remarkable.  I can’t get enough of them.  And since, I couldn’t choose just one butterfly to use on my card, I lined up a trio of them, and love how they look together. Grouping elements is a really fun and effective way to showcase your favorite images, such as I’ve done here.

 

Our new Script Background Stencils are a perfect match with our Graceful Butterflies stamps.  I heat embossed my background on pink cardstock using gold embossing powder.  I love the combination of pink and gold.  I simply sponged on watermark ink over my stencil, removed the stencil, coated the inked area with gold embossing powder, removed the excess powder, and used my heat gun to set the embossing powder.  So simple and a fun way to use your stencils.

 

There’s so much to love about Graceful Butterflies.  All but one of the butterflies are a two-step stamp, so you can add color to the details in the each butterfly.  The sentiments are plentiful and just as unique as the butterflies, with mixed fonts in a variety of gorgeous options.

You’ll fall in love with these new products as you get to see what our designers have created using them.  Sit back and enjoy!

 

Supplies used:

STAMPS: Graceful Butterflies

INK: Olive Twist, Raspberry Fizz, Autumn Rose

PAPER: Sweet Blush, Stamper’s Select White, Sheer Basics Vellum

DIES: Graceful Butterflies, Mix & Mat:  Confetti, Border Bling:  Embossed Skinny Frames, Charming Tags 1

OTHER: Patterned paper, adhesive gems, ribbon, button

 

TIPS:

  • Use a large assortment of butterflies for a big impact
  • Create and interesting background by combining stencils and penciled outline stamps
  • Bend the butterfly wings upward to create the illusion of flight

 

 

TIPS:

  • Rip the ends of the sentiment strip for a different look
  • Create a tone on tone background by layering different die cuts
  • Create visual movement by staggering design elements

TIPS:

  • Layer two different stencil patterns for depth
  • Add die cut flowers to the stenciled pattern for a unique look
  • Try using multiple colors of ink on the base layer of the butterflies for added visual interest

Next up I today, I’m happy to share with you the new Vintage Postage and Penciled Outlines stamp sets and dies.  They go together so beautifully and are gorgeous additions to your stamping arsenal.  From shabby chic to elegant and timeless, these new products are heartwarming and so inspiring.  Let’s get started with my project.

 

Vintage Postage is delightful, playful, and instantly beautiful.  I love an easy to use stamp set, how about you?  You know the type of set that creates lovely projects effortlessly?  Vintage Postage is that type of set.  You’ll love the mix of postage frames in a variety of sizes.  Stamp the frame in any color you desire, and add your toppings, complimentary elements, and create your own postage stamps.  So much fun!

 

I created two different postage stamps using elements found in this set.  I embellished them using florals from this gorgeous set.  Yes…this set comes with the most beautiful florals too!  I stamped my flowers in watermark ink and heat embossed them using white embossing powder.  I then added color using my watercolor markers.  Do you love the tiny “1968” and “25 cents” images?  You’ll find more just like them in this set.  They kind of just push this set over the top, don’t you think?

I added my sentiment on my die cut and stamped Penciled Outlines block.  This fun set features a variety of different shaped frames or outlines.  They’re perfect for creating delicate, sketched images to surround your sentiments, featured elements, focal points, and even sentiments.  I used the large square image and stamped my text lines using an image from the Vintage Postage stamp set.  I then added my sentiment from the same set, which was designed to line up perfectly with these lines. How clever…resembles an addressed envelope doesn’t it?  I even added a Graceful Butterfly to this card, because these sets combine so beautifully together.

How I love these new products.  Hope you do too!  Enjoy the projects our talented team has prepared for you.

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.✨

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.✨
