What a beautiful "Butterfly" card. I don't have that punch for the butterfly, but just may be able to find another that will work equally as well, or just mark with pencil and cut w/craft knife. Guess it can be done one way or another. TYFS. Have a fabulous time on "Onstage". We'll be waiting for results.

Stunning cards my friend. Wish I was going to an Onstage just to spend time with my international BFF. Have a wonderful learning experience; but I will miss my 1 am Sunday video that always put a 😃 smile on in my heart. I just love your style. Can't wait to see your swaps & 3D projects after you return. Be safe and thank your hubby for all he does for you and the ladies that are going. Bling-bling is my thing Pat from Arkansas 🇺🇸 USA

[@geraldinehomenchuk8655]

While this is an absolutely gorgeous card, Jan (no questions there!) I just LOVE that it's so quick and easy! It's one that I can easily whip up in duplicates and I fully intend to do just that! I particularly love the pink glimmer paper with the tropical DSP one ... and can just imagine the recipient breaking out in a big smile upon opening such a pretty piece of mail! Thanks so much for sharing and working out any of the "bugs" along the way that we might want to watch out for! 😊

[@janbcards]

Hi, Geraldine. Yes, it is quick and easy. Wouldn't it be fabulous for Christmas cards with angels instead of butterflies and dragonflies? Maybe it'd work with trees, too! I can see a lot of experimenting coming up nearer to Christmas! I'm pleased you like this project. Many thanks. ☺ Happy crafting. JanB.

[@janbcards]

Hi, Helena. Yes, it's amazingly quick to make. I'm so pleased you like this project. ☺ Happy crafting, JanB.

[@judithmcpherson750]

Love your card Jan. Can you suggest what else you could use instead of the punch, would any of the dies that SU have work?

[@janbcards]

Many thanks, Judith. I think you could use any punched or die cut shape, as long as it's flexible. By this I mean, the butterfly is flexible because it has shapes cut out of it (like lace). For example, hearts would work beautifully, but "lacy" hearts would be better than a solid heart. The exceptions to this would be if you used small solid shapes e.g. asmaller solid heart would work better than alarge solid heart. I hope this makes sense! Please let me know if it doesn't!☺ Happy crafting. JanB.

[@vayes7958]

Oh my.... Those are beautiful

[@sylviagaddis8517]

Ms Jan!! Wonderful card as usual. I don't have that butterfly or dragon fly dies. Can use the older set (I think it's actually called) Butterfly's set? Thank you!!

[@janbcards]

Many thanks, Sylvia. Yes I'm sure you can. Enjoy! ☺Happy crafting, JanB.

[@sylviagaddis8517]

[@debbiekingston5166]

Yes it is easy, but end up complicating things more. Enjoy your time onstage.

[@janbcards]

Hi, Debbie. Who complicated it.......you or me?? I hope you sorted it out. ☺ Happy crafting, JanB.
