Dragonfly Garden Card for a True Friend

I used the new Dragonfly Garden stamp set along with the Artistry Blooms Designer Series Paper, Stitched Shapes Dies, and Artistry Blooms Adhesive Backed Sequins to create today’s card. I cut a strip from one side of the DSP layer and flipped it around. It doesn’t make a huge difference, but it just adds a little something-something. The stamp set will be available to order 5 January 2021, either alone, in a bundle with the Dragonflies Punch, and as part of the Dandy Garden Suite Collection. That’s only a week away!

I love hearing from you! Please leave your comments and questions in the comments section at the bottom of this post!

Here’s what I did:

Cut and scored with my paper trimmer:

• Granny Apple Green card stock (CS) cut to 4-1/4″ x 11″, then scored in half at 5-1/2″
• Whisper White CS layer cut to 4-1/8″ x 5-3/8″
• Artistry Blooms Designer Series Paper (DSP) layer cut to 4″ x 5-1/4″, then a 3/4″ strip cut from the right side
• Whisper White CS cut to 4″ x 5-1/4″ for the inside of the card base

Stamped with the Dragonfly Garden stamp set:

• sentiment in Gorgeous Grape ink onto a scrap of Whisper White CS
• flowers and dragonflies (or are they butterflies? I’ll just call them critters) in Gorgeous Grape ink onto the DSP layer (after it’s glued onto the Whisper White CS layer)
• critters in Gorgeous Grape ink onto the Whisper White CS for the inside

Cut using the Stitched Shapes Dies:

• sentiment

Assembled the card:

• burnished the fold in the card base with a Bone Folder
• larger DSP layer glued onto the Whisper White CS layer, lining it up at the left
• DSP strip rotated 180 degrees (pink at bottom instead of the top) and glued beside the larger DSP (then stamped on the DSP layer)
• sentiment glued onto the DSP layer at the base of the flower stems
• Whisper White CS layer glued onto the front of the card base
• 2 sequins applied onto the sentiment using my Take Your Pick tool
• Whisper White CS glued onto the inside of the card base
