Hello Crafty Friends!! 

I'm here today as a Guest Designer for Spellbinders using the NEW New Start Clear Stamp Set from the Cardmaker II Collection!! SWOON!! I'm a LOVER of Butterflies and I that they can be used for Any Occasion!! I'm still in disbelief that Christmas is only 19 Days away, but with that also comes the Winter Graduations!! I feel like sometimes these AMAZING Accomplishments get over looked due to all of the Holiday hustle and bustle, but wanted to create a Graduation Card using this STUNNING New Set!! 

I've also combined several other Products from Spellbinders to complete my Card, but I encourage you to shop your Stash and see what Products you might already have on hand that could be used in a similar way!! Let's get Started!! 

Here's a Look at the STUNNING New Start Clear Stamp Set from the Cardmaker II Collection!! I LOVE all of the Sentiments that can be used for Any Occasion, but Graduation Cards came to mind while I was creating my Card for today!! 

I Started by Stamping and Embossing the Main Butterfly Image!! I Stamped with Versa Fine Black Onyx Ink and then Embossed with Fun Stampers Journey Clear Embossing Powder onto Snowdrift Color Essentials Cardstock!! 

Then I Colored with Copic Markers!! 
Turquoise: BG10, BG45 & BG49    

Orange: YR00, YR18 & YR68    Yellow: Y11. Y15 & YR23

I fussy Cut the Image out and then added some White Gel Pen Details and a few Teal Color Essentials Gems for some Sparkle!! Then I Die Cut the Circle Stitched Die from some Onyx Color Essentials Cardstock!! I added some Teal Color Essentials Gems to the center of the Circles for even more Sparkle, and I LOVE how it finishes the Die Cut Border off!! Any Border would work here though!! Next I Die Cut a Card Panel using the A2 Matting Basics B Card Creator Etched Die Set, again from some Snowdrift Color Essentials Cardstock!! Then I Stamped and Embossed the the Smaller Butterfly Image from the Set onto the bottom of the Cardstock Panel, again Stamping with Versa Fine Black Onyx Ink and Embossing with the Journey Clear Embossing Powder!! I Stamped the "Dreams" Sentiment onto the Panel randomly to create my own Patterned Paper using Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide Ink!! Then added some Crackling Campfire and Mustard Seed Distress Oxide Ink Splatters to the background to add some Color and Texture to the Panel!! I LOVE how it turned out!! 

I Stamped and Embossed the "Follow Your Dreams" Sentiment from the NEW New Start Clear Stamp Set onto another Circle Die Cut from some Snowdrift Color Essentials Cardstock!! Stamping and Embossing with Versa Fine Black Onyx Ink and then Embossed with Fun Stampers Journey Clear Embossing Powder onto the Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide Inked Circle Die Cut!! Then I backed it with another Circle Die Cut using the NEW Fluted Classics Circles Etched Dies from some Onyx Color Essentials Cardstock adhering the two together using some Bearly Art Original Precision Craft Glue!! Then I adhered the Layered Circle Sentiment on the inside of the Card and added some to add some SPARKLE!! Finishing off the inside of the Card as well as tying it to the Front of the Card so it coordinated!! 

I Adhered the Butterfly Image to my Card Panel using some Journey Foam Squares in Medium and then adhered the Border from the Stitched Curved Border & Ornaments Die Set to my Card Panel above the Stamped Background Design!! I adhered the Entire Cardstock Panel onto an A2 Matting Basics A Card Creator Etched Die Set Cardbase Die Cut from Snowdrift Color Essentials Cardstock!! I used some Pop-Up Die Cutting Foam Sheets to cut a Smaller Panel to adhered to the back of my Card Panel and adhered it to the Cardbase for some Dimension using White Liner Double Sided Adhesive Tape!! 

THANKS SO MUCH for stopping by today and I hope you have a FABULOUS WEEK!!
