Butterfly Brilliance Birthday Card

Hello, Crafters.

On 2nd March 2021 you will be able to buy the pre-release Butterfly Brilliance Bundle which will be available in the new Annual Catalogue which will be going live on 4th May 2021. There are two other products available from 2nd March that co-ordinate with this bundle but they won’t be available in the new catalogue.

        

These two products are Butterfly Bijou 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper (DSP) pack and Natural Touch Speciality Paper. I bought the bundle and the DSP but not the Speciality Paper which I understand looks and feels like natural birch. (I haven’t seen this product).

Yesterday I was planning the video I’ll be making today ready for Sunday morning and I need to have something that will work as a pop up. Normally I would have gone for the zebras but I seem to have used them so much recently that I decided I need something different and these butterflies should be ideal.

   

The largest of the twelve dies in the set die-cuts all the stamped butterflies in one go. The die will also die-cut six butterflies from one of the sheets of DSP! The first photograph above shows the sheet of DSP with the large die in position. The second photograph shows the butterflies after they have been die-cut but still with the die in position. I decided to have a play with the bundle ahead of using it for tomorrow’s video “un-tested”.

 

This bundle really is something else. The stamp set is actually one stamp which stamps six butterflies of different sizes and designs.  (See the top two photographs).  It’s an amazing bundle and I prefer it to the other butterfly sets on offer! One of the top SU demos in the US has suggested buying a second stamp set so it can be cut into individual stamps. I think this is an amazing idea and I will certainly be ordering one on 3rd March. (Although demonstrators can pre-order, we can only pre-order one before the launch date.)

  

I’ll share the card I made with you next week. I don’t normally go through forthcoming offers with you in this much detail but I’m so impressed with this bundle and I’m sure you will be, too. I’ll be back with you tomorrow with my Sunday video. In the meantime, take care and stay safe. Happy crafting.
