Dragonfly Dreams Set - Catalog Favorite

Stampin Up introduced Dragonfly Dreams in the Occasions Catalog earlier this year and I was so happy that it was carried over into the 2017-2018 Annual Catalog.  It is one of my favorite stamps and Thinlet Dies.  It is one of those stamp sets that I will keep forever, it is truly timeless.  I made a card set with coordinating tote and donated it to a local business for their 30th anniversary giveaway.

 



Card Measurements:

 Smoky Slate  base 5 1/2 x 4 1/4

Blushing Bride layer 4 x 5 1/4

Whisper White Layer 3 3/4 x 5

Blushing Bride 4 x4 for Dragonfly

TIP:  I cut a piece of copy paper same size as Whisper White layer to create a mask using the Layering Ovals Framelits.   I used Smoky Slate, Blushing Bride and Pink Pirouette to create the background with the Timeless Textures stamp set.  To learn more about this technique check out this video on You Tube.   Thanks to Kim Williams inspiration for this card and a great video tutorial.

Coordinating Tote

 

 

 

This tote was designed by LeeAnn Greff and her instruction video has been up on You Tube since August 2015.  It is so easy to make, this is my third one and it is a perfect tote for my cards.  The cardstock is Rich Razzleberry, the DSP and Brads are retired, the sentiment is from a past Paper Pumpkin kit.  I have seen this tote decorated so may ways on Pinterest, it is so versatile.  Just jump in and make one today!!

FMS 284 - Dragonfly Dreams

It has been ages since I joined a Freshly Made Sketches challenge #284  This week I could not resist and I had make this card using the masking technique.  So easy to do and it add a unique background to the card. 

• Start with Whisper White card base 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 
• Layers Basic Black 4 1/8 x 5 3/8, Whisper White 4 x 5 1/4
• Mask off center of  Whisper White layer & fill in with Smoky Slate ink using sponge brayer
• Stamp random images from Timeless Textures & Awesomely Artistic sets in Basic Gray ink  
• Die cut  2 dragonflies from the Detailed Dragonfly Thinlets set & cover with Wink of Stella  
• Added a Metallic Enamel Shapes for interest
• Adhere layers & attach to card base
• Due to the size of the dragonflies I choose not to add a sentiment as per the sketch 

I chose the colors Basic Black, Basic Gray and Smoky Slate so I can present this card on the current Color Your World FaceBook page challenge.  Wild colors to pick for springtime.
