Butterflies & Chocolate in the Park



I had so much fun creating the projects for this month's stamp club meeting!  We made a Push/Pull or Double Slider Card and a cute matchbox with chocolate nuggets inside!
The directions for the card are here.  I stamped the leaves onto the DSP to add some more color.  Then I ran some Walk in the Park DSP and some baja breeze through the Sizzix with the new exclusive Stampin' Up! Butterflies die.  I put the smaller butterfly through the Sizzix again with the dotted texture plate and added three dots of glitter glue that I made by mixing crystal effects with dazzling diamonds glitter.

Here is what the card looks like with the sliders pulled out.  Everyone loved sliding them in and out, in and out!
For the little matchbox, I ran some more Walk in the Park DSP and some of the medium weight window sheets through the Sizzix with the Matchbox die.  Then, we stamped the Polka Dot background with some white staz-on on the window sheet and wrapped some of the beautiful Whisper White Organza Ribbon around it. We added "celebrate" from the Matchbox Messages stamp set layered with some baja breeze that I also ran through the Matchbox die.  Finally, we wrapped the chocolate nuggets with the Walk in the Park DSP and placed them in the box!
