The Dragonfly Dreams stamp set is proving to be a very popular set, and for good reason. It contains beautiful dragonfly images and the ability to create a water effect using stamps. But did you notice the cute bee stamp? The matching thinlits dies set also have a bee image. I have a friend just loves bees and butterflies, and her favourite Stampin’ Up! colour is Daffodil Delight, hence my card today.
I have used Early Espresso to stamp the image randomly, (random is never quite that random but you know what I mean) onto Daffodil Delight card stock, layered with Early Espresso and then onto a Daffodil Delight card base. The greeting is from the same set and is die cut using the Layer Ovals Framelits. I have added a little Wink of Stella here but I think a layer of Fine Tip Glue Pen over the wings would add dimension and shine.
As per the description above, I very rarely use black ink. I generally use Early Espresso instead. Unless compared directly with something black it looks black without the harshness that black can sometimes present.
Happy stamping!
Christine
