Some more cards from Decorative Paper I have made recently. This is an alcohol ink background in reds, oranges and purples.
I cut the greeting with Stampin Up Little Letters framelits from white card stock layer. I then cut tropical flowers with the SU Flower Fair framelit set. They remind me of hibiscus flowers. I used the larger die to create the 2 holes in the white layer then cut the resulting positive shape with a smaller framelit. I used a deep red marker with a fine nib to create a dot shadow around the hole. Once the colored layer was adhered to the magenta purple card front, I adhered the white layer to the colored one. I then adhered the 2nd white flowers in the center of the holes cut.
Another alcohol ink background. I sure love these vibrant colors. I stamped the white layer with a SU Itty Bitty Background stamp in deep blue. I cut the greeting with the Memory Box Grand Happy Birthday die from the decorative paper. I aligned the bottoms edges leaving a small border. I cut the butterfly with the Sizzix Winged Beauties Thinlits set from the same paper.
I cut the Acrylic Paint Decorative Paper with the Cricut and the Just Because Cards cartridge. It was cut at 6". It was adhered to the card front. I tucked a color printed oval greeting in the lower crescent. I layered several silk flowers starting with a large white with yellow ends, then a white medium then a blue purple one which repeats the colors in the DP. I added some green silk leaves and held all these layers in place with a tiny white brad.
This decorative paper was created with spritzing re-inker ink with a small mister spray bottle. I selected two warm orange silk flowers, then a green handmade paper flower then then a white silk smaller flower all held in place with a blue mini brad. I added a strip of coordinating strip of card stock across the bottom third of the card. I then added a bright greeting coordinating with the colors in the DP. I added a color printed oval greeting cut with the CM oval cutter.
This is the same decorative paper as the previous card. I cut it with the Sizzix Tim Holtz Vintage Cabinet Card die. This layer was adhered to a golden yellow card. I layered a large silk flower, then 3 from the Sizzix Flower Layers and Leaves die in warm green and golden yellow. I selected a golden yellow mini brad and placed a white sequin then the card stock flowers then the silk then onto the card front. I designed the greeting, color printed in black on vellum then clear embossed it.
This is a layer of Acrylic Paint decorative paper in blues and purples. I cut a flower from vellum to match the greeting. The white felt flower was cut with the SU Blossom Party original die as well as the purple slim petal one. I added a tiny iridescent sequin onto a tiny white sequin then layered the flowers. This was adhered to the card front once the decorative paper had been glued to the card front of a purple card. I designed the greetings and printed them on vellum. I adhered the vellum greeting to the card front with vellum adhesive. It was printed in black and clear embossed. They look great!
These cards are a line of cards I've designed with unique decorative paper I design regularly. I've named the line Unique Cards. These are for sale in a gallery. Check the tab at the top of the blog.

Card - Butterfly Thank you
This is a card made with Stampin Up product. I started with a Soft Suede card. I added a layer of Delicate Dots DSP cut to leave a small border. I punched top right and bottom left corners with a corner rounder. I cut a piece of Rose Red card stock with one of the flowers from the Flower Fair framelits. I ran it through the Pretty Print embossing folder. I brushed the embossing with ink pad. I stamped the greeting from an unknown stamp set with Soft Suede on Whisper White and embossed with clear powder. I brushed the edges with the ink. I cut the butterfly with the Sizzix Winged Beauties thinlit from So Saffron card stock. I used an Aqua Painter to add the body of the butterfly with Soft Suede ink. The greeting is adhered to the card front with 3D foam tape.

Card - Simple Birthday
I started with a pink card which I believe is Stampin Up Pink Passion. I cut 2 small squares and 1 larger square with my new Sizzix nesting framelits. The squares are cut from Tempting Turquoise Patterns Pack DSP and the larger from Rainbow Sherbert DSP. I stamped the sentiment with a stamp from the A Little Birthday Cheer Stamp set. I then adhered the 2 squares based on a sketch for a challenge. I cut the butterfly from Daffodil Delight card stock with the Sizzix Winged Beauties framelit set. I added some definition with a black marker as well as a flight path.

Card - Simple Butterflies
I was out shopping on National Scrapbooking Day where many stores were having specials. I found the Stitched Square Frames by Die-namics designed by My Favorite Things. I've admired these for quite a while and they were on sale so I said Sold!
I printed a square background of my design in blue and the sentiment in the same color. I cut the largest frame of the set of three from heavy white card stock. I mounted it with 3D foam tape. The butterflies were cut from alcohol ink backgrounds I made a while ago. The dies are the Sizzix Winged Beauties thinlits. They were mounted within the inside of the frame with 3D foam tape.

Card Club - Jan - Butterfly HB
This card would make a great card for a female. This is a versatile design because changing the card allows for a quick variety.
I color printed the greeting layer to match the card color. I then trimmed this layer to leave a small border. I then ran the layer through the Big Shot with the Sizzix Winged Beauties butterfly die. I added wax paper between the metal die and the card stock which made removing the diecut from the die very easy. Good Idea!!! The greeting layer was then glued to the card front. I placed adhesive only on the body of the butterfly and placed it back into the hole in the greeting layer. Then the wings can be brought forward gently. Clean and simple card.

HPC - Butterfly Trio
I made this card for the Home Page Card Challenge. We were asked to use one of our new crafting supplies. The butterfly is a new thin die for me. It's the Sizzix Winged Beauties thin dies. I used the 2nd in size. I had hoped to make the card landscape but 3 across does not fit so I switched the orientation to portrait. I cut the butterflies from sparkly decorative paper. I applied adhesive just to the centre of the die. I layered them onto a banner of white and added thin borders of black card stock on either side. I offset this accent to the left a bit. I stamped some small flowers on the right hand side with black Onyx Versafine. I added a black die cut banner from the Stampin Up Itty Bitty Banners.
