Just Us Girls #628 - Color Week

 Hey there!  It's Color Week at Just Us Girls and Sue has chosen a very regal color combo...red, black, and white.

I purchased this three step butterfly die set at a stamp show a while ago and thought it would work well with these colors.  I first die cut the top layer in white, the second in red, and the third in black.  I mounted it onto a white card base.  To keep it simple, since there is so much going on with the cutouts, I stamped and embossed the sentiment on a black band.  I stacked a red and a white butterfly, that were left over from die cutting the plates, together and added it to the black band.  I added black crystals to the center of the butterfly to represent its body.

You can see more from the JUGs design team and our April guest on the JUGs blog.

Thanks for stopping by!

You totally inspired me to pull out a three-set butterfly die set that I have yet to use and make my own stencil! Awesome card, Lisa!

Fabulous die set, Lisa, and it looks great in the challenge colors. I can see it in many other combinations too.
