Slim-line dragonfly cardboard DT Ann

 Slim-line Dragonfly Card

By DT Ann 



There seems to be a trend for slim-line cards just now, needing some inspiration I looked in my Bee Crafty stash & decided to use some of the papers Bev designed… 


I used:

Bee Crafty Papers

Stamps: Dragonflies/ Coffee Stains/ Backgrounds , Textures & Boarders/ Small Words

Dies: Dragonfly 

Distress Oxide : Salty Ocean 

Versamark Ink

Distress Embossing Glaze: Speckled Egg

White Pen

White card

Cut a piece of card 8”x 6” & score down the centre to form an 8” x 3” card…. Cut out the three circles from the Bee Crafty papers ... 



Ink the edges with Salty Ocean Distress Oxide Ink.. 


Add some extra background details using the Coffee Stain Stamp set & the numbers from the Dragonflies set… 


On a clean piece of card stamp the medium dragonfly 3 times in Versamark ink and cover with Distress Embossing Glaze ( Speckled Egg), remove excess & heat emboss. 



When cooled die cut each one. Put some Salty Ocean onto a glass or blending mat, then use a water brush (or water & a brush) to colour the main body of the dragonfly… 


Use the top dotty lines stamp vertically on the slim line card front, to form two lines from opposite corners…  (see photo ⬇️)


Glue the circles to the card front & add the dragonflies… 




 Add some doodles with a white pen & a sentiment from the Small Words set … 





Thank you for stopping by … Ann xxx
