Instructions:
1. Prepare transparency by whipping surface with the anti static bag. Please note, your hands should be very clean and free of oil, if they are not you will leave finger prints on your finished project.
2. Using Versa Mark Ink, stamp butterfly onto the transparency, I was able to stamp eight images .
3. Sprinkle Purple Spark, remove excess and slowly and from a farther distance than usual heat setting, heat set the image. Being careful not to burn or melt the transparency.
4. Cut out the butterflies.
5. Using the E6000 glue, apply a small bead on top of one image and apply the second on top. Set aside to dry.
6. Attach the butterfly to the card with the E6000 glue. Allow to dry.
7. When completely dry (about 30 minutes) gently crease the top wings (Which I separated the two halves with scissors) toward the middle and crease. If you are careful you will not crack the embossing.
