Inlaid Dragonfly Technique Card
02/11/2017
A soft and simple look - have you fallen in love with DRAGONFLY DREAMS yet? I have! This card uses an Inlaid Technique. I cut the dragonflies out of my front white layer, stamped on the card front that's underneath and then put the dragonflies back in where I cut them out of - super easy right? I only added dots of glue under the dragonfly bodies. That way the wings and tails kind of pop up a little bit because they are secured down - make sense?
I love the bold pop of color with the SUCCULENT GARDEN DESIGNER SERIES PAPER on the left - just a 1/2" stripe does exactly what this card needed!
There's a complete PRODUCT LIST down below.
This is the greeting set I used - SENDING THOUGHTS:
