Crafting with Dragonflies.

Time for our next challenge with the Dragonflies. This time .....guess what....we are looking for Dragonflies on your card  or you could use Butterflies. But I'll let  you into a secret ....our lovely Hilde just loves Dragonflies!! We would also like this to be the main feature on your card....so no going adding it as a last minute thought....lol as if!! xx

This is my card for you. It's one of my box cards, that I seem to be making a lot of these days. They are very popular with my friends.



I die cut the dragonflies using a free die I got with a magazine. How lucky was that!



I die cut the dragonflies twice using blue card underneath to create a shadow effect. You can just see the blue and white card inside. This was the card I used to make the box card. It was white on the reverse. So I mat and layered it with silver card that I ran through the embossing machine to give it some texture. The flowers and swirls are also die cut. I then added blue gems to the centres and on the dragonflies.

I had fun making this I hope you do too. You can find details on You Tube re 'How to make the box card'.

 My son has been visiting this week and is off to the UK tomorrow. So I'm off for my last minute cuddles!!! I'll be visiting you soon Take care and have a great weekend.
