Dragonfly Garden Bundle

Hi again,

I am often asked about ideas for masculine cards, so here is one using the Dragonfly Garden Bundle (#156224). However I am sure it would be also suitable for the ladies.

The flowers and dragonfly are both from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set (#154411). The dragonfly was stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) and the flowers were stamped with Granny Apple Green ink (#147095) on Basic White card (#159228). The flowers and dragonfly were coloured with Stampin’ Blends - Mango Melody (#154888), Daffodil Delight (#154883), Granny Apple Green (#154885), Poppy Parade (#154958), Rococo Rose (#154900) and Smoky Slate (#154904). The Dragonflies Punch (#154240) cut the dragonfly.

The blue DSP is from the Dandy Garden 6”x6” Designer Series Paper (#154297) and attached to the Basic White card base. The next layer is Daffodil Delight card (#121680) which I dry embossed with the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder (#152718). The card with the flowers was attached to the Daffodil Delight card and the Dragonfly was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). 

Happy Birthday is from the Art Gallery stamp set (#154421) and stamped with Misty Moonlight ink (#153118). The sentiment and the Misty Moonlight card (#153086) under the sentiment were cut with dies from the Potted Succulents Dies (#154330) and also attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I also dry embossed the Misty Moonlight label with the Tasteful Textures Embossing Folder.

As usual I added some glimmer to the dragonfly and the flowers with the Clear Wink Of Stella Glitter Brush (#141897).

I hope your day has been a great one!!

Flowering Vine Dies

Hi,

I have used the Rectangular die from the Flowering Vine Dies (#154332) on this card. 

The base card is Whisper White, the next layer is Blackberry Bliss card (#133682), followed by the Dandy Garden 6”x6” Designer Series Paper (#154297). I adhered the Adhesive Sheets (#152334) to the Gold Foil Sheet (#132622) before cutting with the Flowering Vine Dies, then this was attached to the DSP.

The dragonfly from the Dandy Garden stamp set (#154411) was stamped with Blackberry Bliss ink (#147092), then punched with the Dragonflies Punch (#154240). I added the glitter from the Clear Wink Of Stella Glitter Brush (#141897) to the wings of the dragonfly. This did cause some bleeding of the ink but I liked how it gave a subtle colour to the wings. The dragonfly was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The sentiment is from the Many Mates stamp set (#c152633), stamped with Blackberry Bliss ink , then cut with a Hippo & Friends die (#153585). The Blackberry Bliss banner under the sentiment was cut with a die from Flowering Vine Dies and the Gold Foil sheet was cut with the Messages die (#154422). Stampin’ Dimensionals were also used to attach these and the sentiment to the card.

Have a great weekend!!

Dandy Garden Designer Series Paper

Hello,

We all have bits and pieces of Designer Series Paper and they are great for a quick and easy card with very little stamping.

I attached a piece of Whisper White card (#106549) to the Whisper White base card. I had daubered the edges first with Bumble Bee ink (#153116). Then I attached 2 pieces of the Dandy Garden 6”x6” Designer Series Paper (#154297) to the cardfront. Another piece of DSP was attached to a piece of Bumble Bee card (#153082) and this was attached to the card.

The sentiment is from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set (#154411) and stamped with Bumble Bee ink. The labels for the sentiment were cut with dies from the Potted Succulents Dies (#154330). These were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

Yes, a very easy card.

Have a great day!!
