Here's a sneak peek of one of the
Sale-A-Bration 2009 sets -
Polka Dot Punches. The set has 4 stamps, all of which fit with one of SU!'s punches. On this card, I used the heart image and the new
Full Heart punch to create a butterfly.

I started with a
Gable Green card base and added a strip of
Rainbow Sherbet dsp. I folded down one corner of the dsp to show off both designs on the paper. I stamped a sentiment from one of the new Level I hostess sets
Sweet Little Sentiments, stamped in
Green Galore ink. I also added some
Apricot Appeal grosgrain ribbon.

To create the butterfly, I stamped the heart image twice in
VersaMark ink on
Tempting Turquoise scrap. I embossed the hearts with white embossing powder and punched each out with the Full Heart punch. I attached them together at the points using a
Mini Glue Dot. Next, I took a button (from
Fresh Favorites I) and added a piece of wire, which I coiled around a toothpick to create the antennae. I used my
Big Shot and
Scallops #2 die to create the large scallop circle and then used one of my new
Texturz Plates with the Big Shot to create the embossed background. I attached the butterfly to the scallop circle using
Dimensionals, and placed the it on the card front also using Dimensionals.
A fun, "springy" card! Makes me think of warmer weather... :)
