I have a few of these full panel cards but haven't used them much, This is the first time using this one. I liked how this sentiment fit just right inside the panel. This was my first time trying to stamp onto a piece of card stock that I had applied mega flakes. I had it in my scraps bin and thought they would go pretty with the colors in the card. I had a hard time getting any ink to stick to it, this final ones I used Versafine ink but then when I went to cut out the butterflies the ink smeared, I patted it a few times and that seem to take the access off. I was afraid to emboss wondering what that would do with the megaflakes since they are applied with glue, but I am going to try that next time.
Let me know if you have tried stamping on a megaflakes background and what inks worked for you.
You can see a little more of the shine on the butterflies and the embossed details in the background die on the above picture.

Very beautiful, Connie! I love the pretty background peeking through and those lovely butterflies!
Connie, your card is stunning!! Love the pretty layering and the butterflies. It's always fun to experiment.
This is beautiful Connie! I have not tried this technique so can't share any advice but looks awesome! Well done! Have a great weekend coming up!
Very beautiful!Hugs!
For all the little hiccups you had whilst creating this card, Connie, it has turned out beautifully. Another uniquely beautiful pretty, crafted from your clever imagination and hands.
Connie, I've never heard of megaflake backgrounds. I'm not sure what they are. I do know that I like your card though! ♥
Fabulous inspiration. I have many of these dies and seldom use them ,but you have inspired me..great project.x
This is beautiful Connie! The butterflies are exquisite.
What a beautiful card. Love how there is design above and below your die cut.
I love the colours and panel on your card, the sentiment fits perfectly! I will be having a go at stamping onto gilding flakes, never tried that before! Your butterflies are just gorgeous.
This is so pretty. hugs, lj
Wow, this is a stunning card!
Goodness, Connie, one would think the sentiment and die were a set. What a perfect match! I sure can't help you about stamping on gilding flakes. Have never used them, but you'd think if anything would work it would be Stazon. Nevertheless, your butterflies are gorgeous! You've done the prettiest things with your gilding flakes. The die is very pretty. I shy away from whole card dies with lots of detail because I have a hard time getting them to cut right. Am I the only one? Have tried all the tricks. Yours looks perfect!
It looks good Connie, I like it :)
All the best Jan
