1 Place the silicone stamp with the butterfly design precisely in the middle of the card and mark with thin pieces of masking tape.
2 Use a glue pen to apply glue across the lines on the back of the silicone stamp. Turn over the stamp and press it onto the card. Remove the masking tape.
3 Leave the glue print until it is tacky; i.e. it's still sticky but doesn't stick to the fingers when touched. Place the deco foil on top and rub hard to attach it onto the glue. Carefully remove the deco foil sheet.
4 Make one stamped butterfly design at the time with deco foil; a total of three butterflies in different colours in a row.
5 Begin by embossing your chosen design onto card using base plate B + silicone plate + card + embossing folder + plate E.
6 Now die-cut your chosen butterfly design with a die using cutting plate C underneath + card + die + base plate B on top.
