Good morning TLC! Hope you are all doing well. We are not so well. We have the crud that has been going around. Anyway, today I thought it would be fun to try a simple technique where the end result is awesome. It requires you using both the positive and negative parts of your die. It gives a 3D effect. Use my sample as your guide. I cut out the butterfly. Then I backed the area where it was cut out with patterned paper. I bent the wings of the butterfly and glued the body portion back in place in the negative area where I originally cut it out.

Here's my card. I thought this would be a really hard thing to do, and it DID take me a lot of time, but was such fun that I will do more. Thanks so much for a fun challenge.
This was another new and fun technique for me. Here is my Puffin Birthday Party card. The icebergs were die cut from the white panel and also from a piece of smokey slate card stock. I popped the slate pieces up a little off center.
