Stampin Up Dragonfly Dreams

Good morning everyone what a lovely surprise the last few days of warmth and sunshine I really think spring is around the corner, so long may it continue.

Today is another Dragonfly Dreams card, did I mention it was my favourite. This is a totally different feel from yesterday's card in Sweet sugarplum and rich razzleberry for a feminine feel. The background was confetti embossing folder which the aperture fits then,arrest ovals thinlet dies perfectly. I sponged using the sponge daubers in Sweet sugarplum all over and then edged with rich razzleberry to bring the eye to the centre of the card. The tiny little stars are cut from the waste of the timeless tags thinlets. The waste from these dies are butterflies, stars and leaves and make just gorgeous embellishments. Some linen twine and a piece of clearance rack ribbon (do check the clearance rack out at my shop as always bargains to be had some up to 70% off)

Thank you for stopping by and see you again tomorrow for more ideas and techniques using Stampin Up products.

I just love the Dragonfly Dreams stamp set and coordinating die as dragonflies are timeless and so on trend. Today I want to show you how to create a fun background using the bokeh effect (bokeh is the circle reflections you get on a camera lens) but with a twist.  I never throw away waste so the hexagonal waste from the Build It framelits was used for a mask. I used all the blues and green inkpads tomsponge using our sponge daubers and build up the background. The last colour to use is white which gives  that translucent look.

The dragonfly was die cut using the solidndie for the background and the detailed in black on top. See yesterdays video for details of these dies. Mounted on black with the sentiment embossed in black it makes a stunning card and if I dare say a good masculine card.

Stampin Up Dragonfly Dreams

Morning everyone! My goodness is it a frosty one today. Am always Up bright and early walking my dog and it was certainly very crunchy underfoot.

I really love the dragonfly Dreams stamp set as dragonflies are probably one of my favourite insects. In the Spring and summer I get quite a few around my pond in the garden. However this stamp set also has some gorgeous bumble bees which I have used in this card.

The stitched framelits are new and really make a difference to a project and can be layered with our ovals, circles and squares framelits, which is an added bonus.

This card is quite clean and simple but has lovely depth by putting each layer on dimensionals.
