Pop Up Dies + YouTube Video

Hi there! Today I'm really happy to be sharing this particular post with you. I've been using Nuvo Shimmer Powders on a butterfly pop up die and I must say, it's beautiful!
The card itself is quite simple but you can still achieve a wow factor with just a few products.
The die sets I've used today are Pretty Pop Ups - Butterfly Blush, and Never Stop Dreaming.

Instructions:

1. Die cut the butterfly blush outer die and then cut into it with the intricate detail, once with watercolour card and another with white thick card. Pick out all the pop up elements with your pokey tool. 
2. Die cut never stop dreaming in black cardstock 5 times and layer up. Cut out a small piece of white card and put behind 'nerver stop. 
3. Using shimmer powders on your watercolour butterfly die cut. Pink at the top, red in the middle and yellow at the bottom. Spray with water to activate and allow to dry. Repeat for a more vibrant colour. 
4. Take a medium size foam pad and layer up 5 times. Place the foam stack in the middle of your butterfly die cut and attach to your card blank. 
5. Add a sentiment over the area on the butterfly die cut where the foam pads are. 
6. Bend into shape so the butterflies appear to float above your card.
