Butterfly Birthday Cards

Hello Again from Craft Chicks Australia!

Today we are showing you Little Chick’s favourite Butterfly Birthday Card design.

The two cards pictured above were both created using Silhouette Studio Designer Edition software, the Silhouette Cameo machine, an Epson XP-850 printer, and basic card & envelope sets you can find in any craft or $2 shop.  The basic card design was inspired by a Pin on Pinterest of a card from The Buzz Blog.

The first card was created in Silhouette Studio Designer Software, and used the Butterfly by Silhouette which is available in the Silhouette Online Store.  The other elements were designed by Little Chick using the Silhouette Studio Designer Software.  The circle features a digital paper, Vintage Love Letters, from ValerianeDigital Etsy Store.  The font used for Happy Birthday is Montez.  The black square outline, circle, butterfly and wording were all printed onto white cardstock and then cut as one square piece on the Silhouette Cameo, and the card assembled.  It was then “blinged” with a few gems added to the butterfly.  All-in-all, a very simple digitally created and crafted card.

 

 

The second card was again created in the Silhouette Studio Designer Software, and used the same Butterfly file by Silhouette. The other elements were designed by Little Chick using the Silhouette Studio Designer Software.  The circle again uses the same digital paper, Vintage Love Letters, and the same font, Montez, was used.  This time we created a layered card and cut the largest square out of black cardstock, then printed the circle and wording onto white cardstock and cut it on the Silhouette Cameo.  The fancy butterfly was also cut out of black cardstock.  The card was assembled and then “blinged” with gems being added to the butterfly and then manipulating the wings so they appear raised.

We hope you liked Little Chick’s Butterfly Birthday Card creations.

Bye for now,

Little Chick & Big Chick :-)
