Hello friends! Today I am guesting over on the Simon Says Stamp blog with these lift ink butterfly backgrounds cards featuring the June 2020 Card Kit, Beautiful Butterflies. The gorgeous designs from the Beautiful Butterflies 6x8 Stamp Set make the most fantastic ghosted backgrounds on these rainbow alcohol inked beauties!

All three cards are the same basic design but feature different alcohol ink colors and greetings. I purposely created a rainbow effect with my three cards, even though a "rainbow" isn't featured on the individual designs. 🌈❤️
The "Hi, Friend" card background was created with Alcohol Inks in Sunshine Yellow, Flamingo, and Sunset Orange. Pinata Brass was also applied with a Pipette to the design as well as Blending Solution. An air blower was used to move the inks around.
The images from the Beautiful Butterflies 6x8 Stamp Set were placed in a MISTI and then the Alcohol Lift Ink was used to create the lift ink or ghosted effect.
A Simon Says Stamp Basic Rectangles Die and A2 Thin Frames Die were used to die cut the background pane. The A2 Thin Frames Die was also die cut from Ivory Cardstock and the background was reassembled with the ivory frame on a white card base.
Tim Holtz Idea-ologyTypography Findings were used to create the greeting. I glued them in place with Glossy Accent and positioned them easily with a pair of craft tweezers.
A sentiment from the Beautiful Butterflies 6x8 Stamp Set was stamped on black cardstock with clear embossing ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder before being trimmed into a strip and adhered to the design with foam adhesive.
A Funfetti Heart was glued under the greeting.
