Question Substitute for middle-size SU Butterfly die?

Hi there,

Does anyone know of a close substitute for the middle-size butterfly die in the Stampin Up Butterflies Thinlits dies? The measurement is 3-1/4" by 2-1/4". I really like the cards made with this die but don't think I would use the other two in the SU set (plus it is not available right now anyways). The closest I have found is the Memory Box Lunette Butterfly die but it is slightly smaller.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Nibs

Nibs,

PTI's Life is Beautiful was released last May, and might be close.

Dies: https://www.papertreyink.com/pti-die...tion-set-of-2/
Stamps: https://www.papertreyink.com/stamps/...ful-stamp-set/

The die dimensions listed in the store are for both layers of the butterfly. The matching stamp set lists the butterfly size at 3 1/4 x 2 3/8 inches. I've seen some stunning cards made with it.

Mary

Heartfelt Creations has the Botanical Wings die. The swallowtail butterfly is 3.5 by 2.25.

I have the Memory Box Lunette Butterfly and really love it. I've attached a card I've made with it:

If it helps and you can wait, my SU! Demonstrator just emailed me and said the butterly thinlet dies would be in the warehouse on April 13.
