Stampin' Up! Dragonfly Dreams - quick & simple
Hello, here are the details for our first project this week. We have used Dragonfly Dreams for Coffee & Cards sessions before but we didn't use the bee stamp. One of the Monday crafty ladies (Pat) mentioned that she has a friend called 'B' (short for Beatrice) and that she had a bit of a thing for bees so ... this one is for you Pat!
I can't believe how many times I reach for the Stitched Shape Framelits - they are definitely my 'go to' dies. I decided to use the Hexagon TIEF to add some texture to the yellow square for a sort of honeycomb effect.
After my earlier dilemma (via facebook) with the bee, I finally decided to fussy cut the bee instead of using the coordinating die and to not colour the wings.
I highlighted the wings with Wink of Stella (WoS). If you have not tried WoS before you are in for a treat; it is certainly the best way to add sparkle to your projects without mess. The glitter brush is perfect for writing and adding subtle controlled glitter to all your projects. I have even managed to capture the sparkly loveliness on the photo below!
Of course the inside and the envelope were decorated to match, here is the completed card.
I have two additional sessions available this week if you would like to join me to make this card and another with a stunning dragonfly image. You can find the details here.
I will post details of the second Coffee & Cards project later this week so be sure to pop back soon.
You can find the products I used for this project at the end of this post with details of how you can receive a free gift from me.
Hope you can join me for a crafty coffee soon!
