Hiya friends, welcome to my first DT post for Bee Arty for 2026! I'm super excited to be sharing with you some really awesome creations this year, today I'm starting off by combining the Grunge Duo dies with the Book Butterfly 3 A4 Cut Apart Sheet so let's get into it!
The first thing I did was cut out one of the circle die and two of the rectangle die from 350gsm white cardstock and used the Colour Artist Dye Ink in Oasis as a watercolour and went to town smooshing the paint down randomly on each die cut. I heat set them, smooshed again and repeated a couple more times until I was happy with the results. As I heat set the last layer, I splattered a little bit of the Walnut Colour Artist Dye Ink for a bit of extra texture.
I set them aside to fully air dry while I created 3 card bases using the 250gsm white cardstock, and embossed some extra 250gsm cardstock with the Impression A5 stencil. The final jobs were to fussy cut my Book Butterfly's and stamp out my sentiments that came from the Butterfly Wishes Stamp set and fussy cut those too.
To assemble card 1 (the circle one above) I cut a 14.3cm x 10cm panel from the bottom half of the embossed panel and glued it onto my card base. I mounted the circle frame with thin foam tape and glued my butterflies into place. I then foam mounted the sentiment in the centre.
For Card 2 (above) and Card 3 (below) I cut the remaining embossed panel into smaller rectangles that fit in behind the rectangle frames and foam mounted the rectangles on top. I added my butterflies and sentiments as shown.
I look forward to joining you all again soon with my next Design Team post later in the month! Let me know via the socials if you create some cards or other projects inspired by this set of cards. - Kelly.
