A Breath of Fresh Air

Stampin’ Up! Birthday card made with Dragonfly Dreams stamp set and designed by Demo Pamela Sadler. See more cards at stampinkrose.com #stampinkpinkrose #etsycardstrulyheart

 

To me the dragonflies are a breath of fresh air.  I know we need to wait awhile to see them again., but Stampin’ Up! is reintroducing them.  We have a dragonfly in Awesomely Artistic stamp set,  but this one is still different.  The Occasions Catalog 2017 has Dragonfly Dreams with a thinlit dies. It comes with three dragonflies and four dragonflies connected as if they are in flight.  So today I am doing the individual dragonfly.  It is double cut meaning I used the intricate cut and stamped the wings separately. They had to be cut out.  I like the effect it gives.  For a different look at the Dragonfly Dreams stamp, look at my Facebook post https://www.facebook.com/stampinpinkrose/

Guess, Who Is Making an Appearance

No, it isn’t Santa nor Rudolph.  It is Dasher!  I think than is appropriate as we are dashing here and there. Sorry if I am over using the word dasher.  However, I think we need an elegant Christmas card that is simple.  I know you will be able to create this one in a hurry (or should I say in a dash).
