Instructions
Run the Bright Blue half-sheet through the die cut machine using the "Birds and Swirls" embossing folder. Then scuff with the Gold ink pad on the embossed area and on the edges. Set aside for now.
Take the large White panel and stamp the following:
Stamp the Mini Twisted Dragonfly in Black ink.
Stamp the Mini Crooktail in Gold ink.
Stamp the Mini Big Wing Dragonfly in Lapislazuli ink.
Stamp the Mini Landing Dragonfly in Neptune ink.
Next, color some of the wings of the Mini Twisted Dragonfly with the colored pencils. Next, edge the panel with Sage ink. Then edge the panel with the Gold Paint Pen. Glue this panel to the card base and set aside for now.
Then use the designer paper with the ribbons to make a panel the centerpiece (yet to be made) can slip into. Edge the designer paper with the Gold Paint Pen and tie the ribbon before attaching to the card base.
Make the centerpiece
Stamp a row of Mini Twisted Dragonflies in Black ink on the White card stock strip measuring 1-1/8 x 3 inches. Use the colored pencils to color the paper and the inside of the Dragonfly wings. Trim and glue to the Pea Green strip and glue that strip to the Bright Blue strip. Mount onto the card base, slipped under the designer paper.
Round Medallion
Stamp the sentiment in Black ink on a scrap of White card stock. Then create a background with the same stamp, this time with Gold ink. Edge with the Gold Paint Pen. Then glue this round piece to the Black card stock and trim away the excess. Glue the resulting medallion to the designer paper strip you made earlier.
That's it! All done...
