To create my card, I first die cut both layers of the Technique Tuesday Dragonfly Crafting Dies twice from thick white cardstock. I dunked the detailed layer in WOW! Embossing ink and heat embossed in Vintage Peacock embossing glitter, which is stunning and completely reminds me of blue dragonflies! I repeated this two more times and set them aside to cool down.

I repeated this again for the base layer dragonfly pieces, this time using WOW! Vintage Romance which is a soft shimmery pink. I then adhered the Peacock layer over the Romance layer and held them under an acrylic block while they dried.

For the background panel, I stamped the WOW! Tropical Stamp in embossing ink horizontally across a 4″ x 5.25″ panel of WOW! cardstock, then heat embossed it with WOW! Neutral Ultra Shimmer. I ran over it with some pale blue ink and a blender brush just to bring out some of the detail. I then adhered the dragonflies over the top with foam tape.
To finish, I stamped this brilliant sentiment from Technique Tuesday’s Inspired Dragonfly stamp set, in pale grey ink. I mounted the entire panel on foam tape onto a white notecard, leaving a small border, and then added some Morning Dew clear Nuvo Drops to finish.
