We made this pretty dragonfly card at last month's Card Clubs.
I knew I wanted to use the new In Color shimmer vellum and thought the Dragonflies punch would work perfectly. It sure did! I wish you could see the shimmer in person; it's beautiful!
They had a choice of Polished Pink or Fresh Freesia for their card and could punch a variety of colors for their dragonflies.
We used the Dragonfly Garden stamp set which is bundled with the Dragonflies punch in the bundle seen here. See how the wings are curled? The bone folder works beautifully for this. *Watch the video below to see how it's done.
Tip: I recommend using Stazon Black ink when stamping on the vellum so it dries quickly. Vellum paper doesn't 'absorb' ink easily so it can stay wet a long time.
