Beauty Abounds meets Crackle Paint for a Match Made in Heaven. How pretty are these cards? I love the way the butterflies hover over that fantastic Crackle Paint background (unfortunately I am not able to list that items yet #148752). This is definitely going to become one of my favourite background stamps. It is meant to be a bit hit and miss, so is perfect if your heat embossing is not perfect yet. The Butterfly Beauty Dies are stunning, and there are 20 of them. There are two large dies that can be layered AND you can cut the butterflies away from the large piece so you have 5 separate butterfly elements.

I have recently been looking at both patina and wallpaper pictures on Pinterest. It was one of these that was the inspiration for the Bermuda Bay/Coastal Cabana and Copper colour scheme. Then of course there is the Tea Room Ribbon Duo that has both Coastal Cabana/Copper and Very Vanilla/Copper narrow ribbon. Adding a small amount of narrow ribbon to the crackle paint piece before adding the die cuts just lifts the card from the ordinary. Well I think so!

All in all, this is actually not a difficult card. I do recommend that you use the Precision Base Plate when die cutting the Butterflies to make sure you get a clean cut first time, but other than that. Easy crackle paint heat embossing, some ribbon and a die cut, that’s it! a perfect start to your Spring Crafting. Simple Stamping Saturday will return next week!
