This new,  Dandy Garden Project Collection, is especially exciting, because it’s being introduced at Stampin’ Up’s On Stage event in November.  I was able to receive it early, being a Demonstrator who is attending the virtual event. How fun!

When I first started making cards, I was intrigued by this technique; folding down a corner. It’s great to use when you want both sides of the paper to show, like this fabulous, Dandy Garden Designer Paper. It is 6″ X 6″ paper, cut a smidge smaller than than the card front, 4 1/4″ X 5 1/2″.

Before gluing to the Mossy Meadow card base, I folded down the corner, and secured it with two Dimensionals, so it would stay slightly raised.

Dandy Garden

You know I love Braided LinenTrim, and here it is in Mossy Meadow, from the Dandy Garden Project Collection. I tied a bow, stretched it a bit with my fingers, and attached it with a Glue Dot. The collection also includes these adorable, metal, ladybugs. One HAD to make an appearance on my card.

The ladybug landed on the sentiment from the Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set. I stamped “for a true friend” in Mossy Meadow Ink on Whisper White Cardstock, cut with a Stitched Triangles Die. I tucked this under the corner, which mimics the shape.

The focal point is the dragonfly from the Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set, which I stamped in Bumblebee Ink, and punched from Whisper White Cardstock. Yes, I said punched. That’s what makes this set unique from the dragonfly set we recall from the past. 

This is just a sneak peek to whet your appetite. I’ll be showing you more as we get closer to the ordering time.
