Dear Crafters,
Now let’s get started!
Tonight the Art with Heart team are sharing our favourite retiring products and mine is definitely the Watercolour Wings stamp set and coordinating dies, Bold Butterfly framelits & Butterflies thinlits.
I have also used 3 of my favourite retiring colours; Island Indigo, Pink Pirouette, Rose Red, and I will miss them, however there are some new stunning colours to replace them. Yay!
The 1/8″ metallic gold ribbon is also retiring, so make sure you get some of that added to your shopping cart. I have used it on the Rose Red card above in horizontal stripes. I also added Versamark ink to the centre of the butterfly as well as sponged it around the edges of the Rose Red card, added some Gold embossing powder and heat set it for added shine. I used my Fine Tip glue pen to add to the dots on the butterfly, gold embossing powder and heat set!
My next card uses the same products but I have teamed it up with the stunning Painted with Love DSP which will also retire on 31st May. It has this amazing gold through it. This card is a pop through card, where the butterfly slides through the slit when you open it!
I sure will miss these products but I am looking forward to sharing some new items soon.
Thanks for visiting today.

Two very different but beautiful cards Kate, love the colour combination of your first card and the second card is one of my favourite papers it’s very elegant.
Mon xx
Awesome projects Kate. I really love how you have randomly embossed around the edge of the first card. That is a great tip and looks fabulous!
Beautiful cards, Kate. I love how you’ve added gold-embossed accents on your first project; very clever.
The pops of gold really finish off both cards. Thanks for taking part in the retiring products blog hop.
Gorgeous cards Kate and such pretty colours too!
Just love your cards Kate they are gorgeous. I am going to miss the butterflies very much!
Lovely cards, Kate. I love all the gold trimming. I’m going to miss the Butterflies Thinlits, too.
Oh Kate isn’t this set the best! I love your cards, especially the pop through card, such a clever idea!
The butterfly cards are so beautiful.
Your butterfly cards are great, Kate. The watercolour wings stamp is so good with the Stamparatus too.
Oh, these are so pretty! The gold embossing looks fabulous- great tip for embossed sponging!
Great works Kate! I don’t think I’ll part with my Butterfly stamps and dies in the next few years to come.
