Are these Dragonflies adorable!...or are they adorable!


Another close up of the clustered frame. I got quite excited about the laying of the vine across the Mum. To make our toy collection complete....Heartfelt Creations has a die for this too....so we do not have to fussy cut!....they are think out of the box!....so glad we are on the same page...LOL...got to keep laughing, it keeps me young! Making up for all those sleepless nights scrapping....you too?
Back on track... The dragonfly placements brings this to almost, perfection!
This card has no sentiment, you could always add one, but I thought....yes that was painful...LOL...to put a sentiment on the front, took away from the elegance of the card....but that is a question of taste....it's your party and you can do what you want too....LOL...remember that song?

Taking the design paper, cut 18. 7 cm x 13.8 cm. Prick wholes along the edges of this paper and embroider with the gold thread. Adhere all the layers together with the double sided tape or glue. For the oval frame, take the decorative oval die and cut 4-5 cuts. Cut away the inside lace so you have only the out side frame. Glue the layers together so you have a chipboard frame. Using he versa- mark, apply this to the top so it does not cover the frame completely. Apply the embossing powder. Do this a few times so you get the coverage you want. Stamp and die cut the Mum flower so you have 4 of the largest flower shape. Color with the inks then shape the flower using the flower shaping tools. Add a large pearl bead.

Making the 4 dragonflies from the flower stamp and die cutting, color and shape these.
Adhere the oval frame, the made Mum flower. Adhere the vine banner edges to the frame, draping over the flower. Shape the banner before adhering a little with your fingers so it will be rounded. Spot glue to hold it's place. Add the dragonflies. To finish add stickles to the wing tips.

 You see what I mean now....if you go back to the Heartfelt Creations blog or site you will see sooooo much more eye candy....the design team are so great there. A lot of fun to be had for all. Have a scrappy day,

I love the gold embossing...I find it makes all the stamping and die cutting richer...thus your art work even better than you think!

A few close ups, this one is the title done with the Iridescent medium and the traveler stencil from Tim Holtz. 


You can see in this close up how the edges have been inked with the Forest Moss distressing ink.


See how the white from the card stock die cuts show through...this high lights the 3d effect.


The bow to the left and the die cut stamped image is tucked a little under the bow.
Under is the full instructions on how to make this card. You can also find this on the Heartfelt Creations blog....with many other ideas from the rest of the Design Team as always...

Directions:
The finished card measures 14 cm x 17. 2 cm

Take the design paper and cut to 13.4 cm x 16.7 cm. Ink the edges with the Forest Moss, then distress all sides with the paper distresser. To make the frame, die cut using the large frame from the Devine Eleoquence set. Cut x 1 from the design paper and x3 from the card stock. Adhere all layers together to make a chipboard frame. Ink the edges with the Forest Moss. For the front frame, using the small tag frame from the same set, cut x 4 from the card stock. Adhere all the layers together to form a chipboard. Ink this also with the Forest Moss. Taking the World map stamp and black ink, stamp the image on to the frame. Taking the stencil and medium, apply the medium to form the words. Put aside to dry.  Taking the ribbon, wrap this around the design paper, adhere the two frames to the card base. Make a triple bow from the same ribbon, adhere to the left side of the frame. Stamp, color and die cut  x 3, the olive image from the Jars and Accents stamp set. Adhere these as can be seen in the card photo.
