All the items in the Yay You! release are available to purchase now! I created a card for you today using the beautiful new Dancing Butterflies Hot Foil Plates & Dies. The detail in these butterflies is AMAZING.

Main Supplies: (all supplies listed at the bottom of this post)

To make this card, I started by foiling the Dancing Butterflies Hot Foil Plates using the Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil System and the Mini Rainbow Stripe Hot Foil and then cutting them out with the coordinating dies. I also cut and foiled the love using the Love Hot Foil Plate and the Love Shadow Wafer Dies.

Once all of my pieces were foiled and cut, I arranged them on my slimline card that I covered with the Filigree Slim Plate. To finish it, I added a sentiment that I stamped on a card stock strip from the So Much Love stamp set. These foil and cut dies make it so easy to put an elegant card together in just a few minutes.
