Hello,
The power was out earlier, thank goodness it's during the day, and as long as there is daylight I can craft!! Luckily the power came back soon, otherwise I couldn't use my heat gun!! LOL
For this CAS card, I first stamp the butterfly from the Hero Arts Greetings set in an ombre fashion on white card stock. Next I used coloring pencils to add in a tiny bit of details, and then hand cut it. The following step is to clear heat emboss the entire butterfly.
On a separate piece of 4.25 by 5.5 inch white card panel I stamped the leaves from Altenew Warm Wishes set in Spun Sugar, and then the sentiment in black. Then with my stylus and trimmer I scored the pancel from backside 1/4 inch from the edge all around to create the embossed frame.
Lastly I glue the panel to a white card base, and adhered the butterfly.
Here's a closer look, you could see the shine from the clear embossing.
