Dragonfly Panel card

Today I am sharing a sweet Dragonfly panel card made for a friend’s birthday. We have been friends for over 43 years since we were brand new student nurses. I used the beautiful Dragonfly Garden stamp set and Dandy Garden dsp, these papers are colours that my friend loves.

To recreate the Dragonfly Panel card, you will need:

Crumb Cake card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” x 2
Dandy Garden dsp – 5” by 3¼” cut into 4 strip 3¼” by 1¼”

I began by adhering the 4 strips of Dandy Garden Designer Series Paper (dsp), using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to the panel of Whisper White leaving an equal border between the panela and around the edges.

Some of the gorgeous Mossy Meadow Braided Twine was wrapped around the panel and adhered on the back by Sellotape.

I stamped the sentiment from the Itty Bitty Birthday stamp set in Mossy Meadow ink onto a scrap of Whisper White card and trimmed it out using my sharp Scissors and added it to the panel with the same liquid adhesive.

I punched a Dragonfly from one of the sheets of dsp using the Dragonfly Punch and added it to the panel using the liquid adhesive.

The wings of the Dragonfly were painted with Clear Wink of Stella, to give a bit of a shimmer. I added a bow made from the same twine using a Mini Glue Dot and a trio of Gold Glitter Enamel Dots.

Such a pretty card, I hope she likes it.
