First I used an embossing folder and gold paint to create a lovely textured background panel for my A2 sized card base out of smooth white cardstock. I then stamped the sentiment in clear ink and embossed it using a gold embossing powder that I heat set for more gold accents.Using a acetate that is heat resistant I stamped gold butterflies on it with clear ink and embossed them using a gold embossing powder. I then turned the acetate over and used alcohol inks to create a colorful "stained glass" look behind the butterfly images. I then fussy cut them out (or you could use the coordinating die to cut them out) and arranged them with glue dots on the card around the sentiment to create the illusion that the butterflies were flying off the card.
