I started by spraying some IMAGINECrafts® Fireworks!™ Craft Spray in Danube Blue and Fireworks!™ Craft Spray in Lady Bug Red on white card, using the Want2Scrap© Bricks Stencil.  You can see some of the shimmer in the photo below - in real life there is so much more!

Next stamp the Butterfly from the Penny Black®, Inc. - butterfly symphony stamp set using

IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® VersaMark™ Watermark Ink.  Now emboss it using the
IMAGINECrafts® Embossing Powder™ - Iridescent and a Heat Tool.

Cut out the butterfly (fussy cut) and sponge using IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® StazOn® Solvent Inks - Midnight Blue and StazOn® Solvent Inks - Blazing Red with a IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® Sponge Dauber™.  You will notice the effect the IMAGINE Crafts® Embossing Powder™ in Iridescent has on the Ink - it has turned it such a pretty shimmery pink.

Cut and emboss white card using the Labels Eighteen Spellbinders® Nestabilities®, using the Die as a Stencil, sponge using IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® Memento™ Dye Ink Dew Drop in Desert Sand and a Sponge Dauber™ 

Stamp the  JustRite® Papercraft image using IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® Memento Luxe™ Mixed Media Pigment Ink - Danube Blue, cut and emboss using the Spellbinders Grand Calibur® and the  Labels Twenty Nestabilities®  

Cut and emboss the handmade patterned paper using the A-2 Fancy Postage Stamps  Nestabilities® Card Creator, stenciling lightly on the inside edges of the Die using Memento™ Dye Ink Dew Drop in Desert Sand.  Adhere the Die Cut patterned paper onto Blue card, followed by the stenciled  Labels Eighteen.

Adhere the Want2Scrap© Labels Eighteen Nestabling onto the coordinating Die.  This is followed by the Die Cut JustRite® Papercraft image, also popped by on foam tape.  Layer the butterfly onto the lower right corner of the layers, using glue and adding foam tape under each wing to pop it up.

  

Finish off by adding some Want2Scrap© -creme pearls onto the center of the butterfly and a Swirls Finesse - Creme down the left hand side - as you can see in the finished photo.

I hope you have enjoyed my Tutorial and are inspired to being out all of the shimmery Red White and Blue and create something special.
