Stampin' Up! Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set-- Another Sneak Peek card

               

  • Stampin' Up! Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set & Coordinating Dragonflies Punch
  • January 20211 Mini Catalog Sneak Peek
  • Final two days to order November Paper Pumpkin Jolly Gingerbread Kit
I'm still walking on the creative clouds after attending the Stampin' Up! virtual convention called OnStage@Home.  I'm still playing with the Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set with its coordinating Dragonflies punch, which we used to create three samples during the event, which I showed you a few days ago.  Today, I created one more card with this new stamp set and punch bundle.  I used gold heat embossing, gold Gilded Gems, Gold Foil Sheets, and gold thread from the Forever Greenery trim Combo Pack to pull this card together.

The card above uses a basecard of Blackberry Bliss Cardstock.  Then a layer of Whisper White dry embossed using the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder.  Then a layer of Gold Foil Sheets, with a collage of images from the Stampin' Up! Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set.

The collage portion of the card is Whisper White.  I used Sponge Daubers to shade the a corner of the  largest Whisper White panel with Coastal Cabana.  Then I did the same using Blackberry Bliss ink and Sponge Daubers on the corner of the upper right Whisper White panel.  Then I stamped the images using Versamark on top of the colored panels, added Gold Stampin' Emboss Powder, and set it with my Heat Tool.

This bottom right Whisper White panel is stamped with a sentiment from the Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set in Blackberry Bliss ink.  Then I stamped one of the butterflies from this set onto Whisper White cardstock using Versamark ink, covered it with Gold Stampin' Emboss Powder, and set it using my Heat Tool.  I used the new Dragonflies Punch to punch out the Dragonflies image, then I used Sponge Daubers to lightly color the wings using Blackberry Bliss ink.  I mounted the dragonfly using full size and Mini Dimensionals and mounted it on the lower right panel.

I used some of the gold thread from the Forever Greenery Trim Combo Pack to tie a bow and added it to the card front.  I also selected three gold Gilded Gems and scattered them onto the card front to finish the gold accents on this card.


This sneak peek of the Garden Wishes Bundle is an other example of the beautiful images and thoughtful sentiments you'll soon have access to if you're a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator.  My customers who purchased within the pat 6 months will see the 2021 mini catalog plus the Sale-A-Bration flyer in late December.   This time of the year is a great time to ask for a Holiday gift that includes new products from the current catalogs and the upcoming 2021 catalogs.  Add these stamp sets and products to your Shopping List today, then contact me when you're ready for more creative ideas and to purchase your supplies.

If you live in the USA and don't have a demonstrator and want a copy of the upcoming 2021 mini catalog and the Sale-A-Bration Brochure  contact me. I'll be putting in a order for new catalogs towards the end of November. I would love to be your Stampin' Up! Demonstrator.

Sneak Peek of the Garden Wishes Bundle from the January 2021 catalog

              

  • Stampin' Up! Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set
  • Dragonflies Punch coordinates with Dragonfly Garden
  • Sneak Peek at upcoming catalog items available in January 2021
I'm attending the Stampin' Up! virtual convention called OnStage@Home, where we're getting a sneak peek of items we'll be able to offer customers in January 20201.  These wonderful stamping products include the Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set and the coordinating Dragonflies Punch.  Today during our virtual event, we create three cards using these new products.  Take a look at my versions of these cards, below.            


Three Dragonfly handmade cards using Stampin' Up! Garden Wishes Bundle

These are the fun cards we created with Dragonfly Garden, part of a suite of products called Luck be a ladybug, which includes two bundles, laser-cut paper, Memories & More Card Pack, matching Memories & More Cards & Envelopes, Ladybug Trinkets, Mossy Meadow Braided Linen Trim, and Dandy Garden 6" X 6" Designer Series Paper. One bundle includes a stamp set and dies; called the Garden Wishes Bundle.  The second bundle is what I used on these cards-- the Dragonfly Garden Bundle, a stamp set and punch bundle.  Bundles save you 10% over purchasing the items separately.

  
Flower and dragonflies greeting card using Garden Wishes Bundle


The card above uses Blackberry Bliss basecard and a Smoky Slate image layer.  I stamped the flower image from Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set in Mossy Medow onto the Smoky Slate layer.  Then I layered two Blackberry Bliss prints from the Dandy Garden 6" X 6" Designer Series Papers.  I created a bow using Mossy meadow 3/16" Braided Linen Trim, and stamped one of the sentiments from Dragonfly Garden in Mossy Meadow in the lower corner.  Then used the Dragonflies punch to punch out several Whisper White butterflies, added mini Dimensionals to the back and scattered them onto the Designer Series Paper.    


Dragonflies and ladybugs greeting card using Stampin' Up! Garden Wishes Bundle

This card uses a Mossy Meadow basecard stamped with the little dragonfly images from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set in Mossy Meadow ink from the lower bottom corner to the top right corner.  Then I added a small piece of Bumblebee cardstock, three prints from the Dandy Garden 6" X 6" Designer Series Paper pack, and the image layer is Whisper White cardstock.  I stamped a dragonfly from the Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set in Bumblebee ink, and then punch out one of the Dragonflies from the Dandy Garden 6" X 6" Designer Series Paper to add to the image layer.  The sentiments, also from Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set, are stamped in Mossy Meadow ink.

Tiny fireflies and large fireflies greeting card using Garden Wishes Bundle




This third card uses Misty Moonlight basecard.  Then on the Whisper White layer, the small cluster of tiny Fireflies was stamped along the entire left side of the card using Bumblebee ink.  Then I used two prints from the  Dandy Garden 6" X 6" Designer Series Paper pack to cut two strips.  Then a small piece of Bumblebee cardstock was layered on to of the two coordinating strips and the wing  stamp was stamped in Bumblebee ink to create a shadow of the dragonfly layered above it.  I used the Fireflies Punch to pun a dragonfly out on one of the prints in the Dandy Garden 6" X 6" Designer Series Paper.  I added a couple of Dimensionals to pop it up before adding it to the card front.  I cut a sentiment label using a die from the Little Treat Box Dies, and stamped a sentiment in Misty Moonlight before adding it to the card front.  

Below, is the stampin I added to the inside of the card.

These cards show the love of Stampin' Up! products our concept artists put into creating such fun images and thoughtful sentiments.  The new bundle is called the Garden wishes bundle, part of a large suite of coordinating products called the Dandy Garden Suite.  While these products won't be available until December for Demonstrators and January for customers, you'll want to save these card ideas to jumpstart your own creativity when creating special cards for your friends and family.  This time of the year is a great time to ask for  a Holiday gift that includes new products from the upcoming 2021 catalogs.  Add these stamp sets and products to your Shopping List today, then contact me when you're ready for more creative ideas and to purchase your supplies.
