Since being back at in person Card & Cuppa classes, I have designed projects using stamp sets beginning with A, B and C.
Last week, it was the turn of D wtih the Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set and matching Dragonflies Punch. This card is inspired by a project in the Annual Catalogue.
For mine, I have used Mint Macaron and Soft Sea Foam for the layer and base card, with Basic White.
The small dragonflies are stamped tone-on-tone onto the layer.
Next, the sentiment, from the Lovely & Lasting Stamp Set is stamped onto the Basic White cardstock.
Then, using Basic Gray, the flower image is added. On a separate piece, the large dragonfly is stamped, also in Basic Gray and then cut out using the Dragonflies Punch.
Using Watercolor Pencils, both packs 1 and 2, these images are coloured and a Blender Pen is used to smooth out any colouring lines.
The wings are then gently curled with a Paper Folder and the dragonfly is stuck to the project using Dimensionals. This makes it look like it is flying.
Finally, a few Pearls are coloured using a Stampin’ Blend marker to coordinate them with the rest of the project.
I really like how using the softer colours for the background and base card has allowed the other colours to pop.
