Birthday card with Memory Box die

This is the first time I use Memory Box die. For such a detail die I did anticipate problem so I do post questions to flickr group in advance. At the end, it's still a bit of adventure to get this die to work.

I quite like Memory Box products, ranging from paper pad to stamps to the new metal die.

I'm trying to make a simple birthday card (like this). But to get the detail butterfly die to work well I experience 3 times on the same card stock, and finally to switch to another thinner paper to get it work.

I don't have the exact same butterfly embossing folder so I substitute with a similar one (same brand though). The green paper of the butterfly is also from memory box. The birthday sentiment is from Stampin Up.



I really like the green which gives me the feel of summer. So refreshing on a hot summer day.

Materials:
Memory box die: Vivienne butterfly 98265 , Darla butterfly 98264, Kaleidoscope butterfly 98261, Moonlight butterfly 98260
Embossing folder from Darice-Corner Scroll
Stampin Up Birthday sentiment
A few gemstones
