I punched two Bitty Butterflies and one Decorative Label from Basic Black cardstock and glued those to a 2" x 5 1/2" Pool Party panel, then ran it through the Big Shot in the Perfect Polka Dots Embossing Folder, and lastly adhered it to the embossed black background panel.
I stamped the floral butterfly with Basic Black Ink on Pool Party cardstock and punched it out with the Elegant Butterfly punch. For more dimension, I sponged the edges with Pool Party ink and put Stampin' Dimensionals on the back of the wings. For the best dimension, I cut three Dimensionals in half, layered the halves of two for a double thickness and put those on the top of each wing, then put the last two halves on the bottom parts of the wings. The half-dimensional shape fits nicely on the back of both wing sections (better than a whole Dimensional would). After sticking it onto the label shape on the card, I added three of the Basic Pearls (two of the tiniest and one of the next size up). Voila!
