Welcome to InKing Royalty’s April Blog Hop! During this year’s blog hops, we are having fun with our stamping favorites – our favorite themes for seasonal cards and projects. This month’s projects feature a mix of butterflies and dragonflies – just in time for Spring. We are excited to share our creations with you today! After you read my post, I hope you’ll hop over to the next person on the list at the base of this post.
Today’s project is a clean & simple card featuring the Brilliant Wings Dies paired with a bold birthday sentiment from Handsomely Suited!

I love a white card with a couple pops of color! There’s also something so classy about Basic Black cardstock with a white heat-embossed sentiment! The butterfly from the Brilliant Wings Dies is beautiful cut from our Rainbow Glimmer Paper! Here’s another look:

I added a little more texture to the card with a 1-3/4″ strip of Basic White cardstock that I dry-embossed with the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder – my free gift with orders of $75 or more this month! A trio of Rhinestone Basic Jewels finish off the card. This card can be used for so many different occasions by just changing the sentiment!
Thank you so much for stopping by today! I hope you’ll hop along to the next stop on the blog hop, Sheryl Abernathy at Elegant Sentiments. There’s lots of inspiration to be found in this group – and you don’t want to miss it!

I absolutely love a white card Julie, and yours is lovely!
I’m so in love with this sweet card, Julie! The texture on the white base panel and the shine of the butterfly are a perfect match! ♥
So simple and elegant and beautiful!!!
I love a white card too! The half embossed panel gives additional interest. Love the colors on your butterfly!
Wow great card! I loved the way you embossed it and the butterfly is stunning!
Simply gorgeous! You’ve got such an interesting card with all the textures. The rainbow glimmer paper is gorgeous with this detailed die.
This is precious! Your glimmer butterfly is so pretty and beautifully showcased with the embossed panel.
