You're Amazing Dragonfly - Floating Hexagon Card with Clear Scraps

 Hello Crafty Friends - I am here with a floating hexagon card featuring the Dragonflies Chipboard Embellishments from Clear Scraps.


Supplies Used:
Imagine Crafts: Mboss Embossing Powder Lucky Stars
VersaMark Embossing Ink
PaperCraft House: Backgrounds & Strips A4 Paper Pack
The Rabbit Hole Designs: Sentimentally Speaking Stamp Set & Dies
Recollections Brand Cardstock 110lb: White
Brutus Monroe: Acetate A2
Copic Marker: R46
Imagine Crafts Tear Tape
Bearly Art Glue
Tiny Peridot Gems
Tools: Bone Folder, Score Board, Timmer & Heat Tool


I started by cutting my card base and bridge pieces. For the base I cut my cardstock to 4-1/2"x 5-3/4".
I scored the base at 1-1/2", & 3" - Then trimmed a hair off each end(long side only). this will help the card lay flat to fit in the envelope.

I cut 2 pieces of cardstock at 1-1/2" x 5-1/2"

Score them at 1/2", 2-3/8", 3-1/8", & 5"

Next, I trimmed my pattern paper for the base I cut 3 pieces. Each piece is 1-1/4" x 51/2"

I adhered them to the card base.

Then, I trimmed the pieces for the bridge panels. I cut 4 pieces at 1-5/8" x 1-1/4" and
 2 pieces at 1/2" x 1-1/4"

I adhered them in place.

Next, I adhered the two bridge panels onto the base. I glued the little tabs to the back of the base at the top and bottom.

It should look like this. I set it a side while I worked on the Dragonfly.

I gathered the Clear Scraps: Dragonflies Chipboard Embellishments and trimmed out one Dragonfly. I got the VersaMark ink, the embossing powder and dmy heat tool.


I pressed the ink onto the dragonfly covering it completely. I pressed it several times to make sure I had plenty of ink on the dragonfly.

I then covered the dragonfly with embossing powder. Shook off the excess powder.

Heat Set the powder. This emossing powder had gold glitter in it for extra shine.

I then trimmed a piece of acetate to about 1/2" x 4 " strip. I then placed the dragonfly onto the acetate and marked with a red alcohol marker through the heart. Removed the dragonfly and made the dot a bit bigger. 

Next, I adhered the dragonfly onto the acetate strip.

I then place a tiny piece of tear tape on each end of the acetate strip.

I then adhered the stip into the center of the card. 

Next, I stamp and embossed the sentiment using the same embossing powder that I used for the dragonfly. I die cut the sentiment and a few more blank piece and adhered them together to create a firm piece.

I adhered the senitment to the bottom bridge panel. Finally, I added a few peridot gems for a finshing touch.

Now, the card is complete!

Thanks Card with CutCardstock

 Hello Crafty Friends -  I am so honored to be designing for CutCardstock I hope you enjoy this thanks card featuring a variety of cardstock.

Supplies Used:
Sizzix Layered Summer Flowers Die Set
Dare 2B Artzy: Thanks Word Die
Darice Embossing Folder
VersaMagic Ink: Spring Pansy, Pixi Dust, & Thatched Straw
Bearly Art Glue
Foam Tabs
Crystal Gems

I started by pulling all the cardstock I wanted to use.

Next, Die cut all the flowers and leaves layers. The leaves I did in Pearl Textured Green Curry Cardstock and Scottish Highlands Textured Cardstock. The flowers I did the largest flower in Hydrangea Purple Textured Cardstock and Plum Purple Textured Cardstock, the medium flower in Pink Lemonade Cardstock and Razzleberry Cardstock. The small flowers in Light Yellow Cardstock and Yellow Jacket Textured Cardstock. I die cut all the flower centers in Orange Fizz Cardstock


Then, I trimmed down the Beetle Black Textured Cardstock and Classic Crest Solar White Cardstock to 4-1/4" x5-1/2". I ran the Classic Crest Solar White Cardstock through my embossing folder for some texture. I then trimmed it down a 1/4" to create a nice boarder for my layer.


I added a bit of ink on the edges of the flower petals for some interest.

I then, adhered the flower layers using some Bearly Art glue.



Next, I adhered the leaves layers using some Bearly Art glue


I die cut the sentiment three times. Once fromBeetle Black Textured Cardstock and twice from  Classic Crest Solar White Cardstock and adhered them all together to create a nice sturdy piece.


Now it's time to assemble the card. I adhered the embossed layer onto the black layer. Then onto my card base. 

I arrange the flowers and leaves how I want them, I pop-up all the flowers and adhere the leave directly onto the crd front panel.

I adhere the sentiment and some gems to finish my card.

Here are a few close ups of the flowers and leaves.
