Stampin' Up! Dragonfly Garden Inspiration Card

Welcome to Wednesday, peeps. I have my last sneak peek card from OnStage@Home for you today. This one is sold already...woo hoo!

I'm entering my card at Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper November 2020 Challenge

Measurements:

Mossy Meadow Card Base: 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored and folded at 4 1/4"

Bumblebee Cardstock: 2 3/4" x 3 3/4"

Whisper White Cardstock (cut 2): 2 1/2" x 3 1/2"

Designer Series Paper: 3/4" x 3 3/4" (pick 3 different patterns and cut one from each pattern)

When January 5, 2021, rolls around, you will need to order the Dandy Garden 6 x 6 DSP Pack, Ladybug Trinkets, Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set and Dragonflies Punch. Don't forget!

We started out by stamping the baby dragonflies in Mossy Meadow Ink on the Mossy Meadow Card Base. Then we adhered the three different strips of DSP to the card base. 

Next we stamped the mama and papa dragonflies on one of the Whisper White cardstock pieces.  On that same piece, we stamped the sentiments and adhered it to the Bumblebee mat. That was adhered to the card front with Stampin' Dimensionals.

Then we stamped a dragonfly on the other piece of Whisper White in Bumblebee Ink, punched it out and adhered it with more Dimensionals. 

I cut another piece of DSP 4" x 5 1/4" and adhered it to the inside with liquid glue. On a 2" x 4" piece of Whisper White, I stamped the flower image in Bumblebee Ink and the sentiment in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. Using my Small Blooms punch, I punched out two flowers from another pattern in the Dandy Garden DSP pack. I adhered them with glue dots.

The envelope got its "now the norm" decorations.

Thank you for stopping by today and I hope you'll be back tomorrow for our weekly Happy Inkin' Thursday Blog Hop.

Stampin' Up! Dragonfly Garden Happiest of Birthdays

Good Tuesday morning my stamping friends. Today I have another sneak peek at the Dragonfly Garden Suite that will be in the January - June 2021 Mini Catalog. This was another card that was demonstrated at OnStage@Home using the upcoming product.

We were given the measurements ahead of time so we could gather our supplies and I will list them for you below. 

First, we stamped the baby dragonflies on a Whisper White panel in Bumblebee Ink. Then we adhered a strip of DSP across the front of that panel. We adhered two more smaller strips on top of that. That is adhered to a Misty Moonlight card base. Then the demonstrator had us stamp just the wings on a piece of Bumblebee cardstock to make it look like the punched out dragonfly was in flight. The dragonfly is cut out from one of the patterns of Dandy Garden 6 x 6 DSP pack and adhered with Stampin' Dimensionals. I sponged the edges with Misty Moonlight Ink. I adhered that to the card front with more Dimensionals. The sentiment is from the Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set and is stamped in Misty Moonlight Ink.

On the inside, I stamped the flower image, from the upcoming stamp set, in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored a few of the flowers and leaves with Stampin' Blends. The sentiment is from the Happiest of Birthdays Stamp Set and is stamped in Bumblebee Ink. I also punched out a smaller dragonfly from the patterned paper.

I'm entering my card in these challenges:

Stampin' Up! Whale Done Birthday Card

It's that time of the week again...Mystery Monday. This is my 10th time doing this with my stamping friends and they are still enjoying it. I'm going to show you all of our cards first and explain more about them in the photos, leaving my details at the end of my post.

My card...

Meg's card...

The card base is Balmy Blue. The WW layer has been embossed with the Dainty Diamonds EF. The focal point is made of varying sizes of the layering circle dies using Pacific Point, Highland Heather, and Balmy Blue CS. The sentiment was created using the Peace & Joy bundle with Granny Apple Green CS and ink. Meg said she cased Melissa Miller's card. She used all the colors in the challenge.

Edie's card...

Edie's card base card is Blueberry Bushel (retired) and is a substitute for Pacific Point. She said she was fortunate to find DSP from the “Best Dressed” Pack (retired) that has 3 of the 4 colors (or close enough). Her card is a "W Fold" so I've included a photo of the inside. It was her first time making this fold and credits Lisa Curcio for the instructions. The sentiments are from “Here’s A Card” stamp set.

Sue's card...

Sue used the retired Artistically Asian Stamp Set for her background image. There's some Night of Navy, Balmy Blue and Pacific Point involved too.

So, my sleuthing readers, have you figured out the mystery card colors? Let's see if you are right...

Thank you, Beth McCullough, for your inspiration and thank you my three friends for playing along with me.

Now, back to my card and it's description...

My card base is Highland Heather card stock. I cut a panel of the same color and embossed it with the Seabed 3D EF. I cut a mat of Pacific Point and adhered it to the card front with liquid glue.

Then, I cut three strips of Whale of a Time DSP (a/k/a snippets for Pixie's Crafty Workshop: Pixie's Snippets Playground Challenge #390 and Di knows how much I want to win her prize!)  I adhered them over the Pacific Point mat with liquid glue. I cut a piece of Whisper White card stock, stamped it with the fish, bubbles and sentiment from the Whale Done Stamp Set. I used Balmy Blue Ink, Granny Apple Green Ink, Highland Heather Ink and Pacific Point Ink. I also sponged the art panel with Balmy Blue Ink. I adhered it over the DSP strips with Stampin' Dimensionals. Three Iridescent Pearls were added and the card front was finished.

Since I have more than three layers on my card, I'm also entering it in the Scribbles Designs Challenge #94 - "Layer It Up".

For the inside...

Using a piece of Gina K Masking Magic, I punched the whale out with the Whale Punch and placed it in the corner. I stamped the sea grass in Granny Apple Green Ink, removed the mask and then stamped the whale in Pacific Point Ink. The sentiment is stamped with Highland Heather Ink. I stamped the envelope whale in Balmy Blue; of course, the flap received a piece of DSP so that it was not "nekkid"!

Artsystamper Digitals Challenge #28 is about "critters" and my whales and fish are just that! Pammie's Inky Pinkies #2046 is an Anything Goes Challenge.

Thank you for stopping by today and I hope you'll leave me a comment to let me know if you are enjoying the mystery cards.
