Dandy Garden Designer Series Paper Tutorial - Card #1

Introducing Dragonfly Card Tutorial Using
Dandy Garden Designer Series Paper
Dandy Garden Stamp Set
Dragonflies Punch

Coordinating Colors
Basic Black, Blackberry Bliss, Bumblebee, Calypso Coral, Misty Moonlight, Mossy Meadow, and Whisper White





As in all my tutorials I spotlight a collection of Stampin' Up! Products.  I do use other stamp sets and dies but create cards that can be adapted to what you have in your craft studio. If you don't want to purchase the dragonfly punch, you could easily substitute using it with a butterfly punch. I will also retired colors from my stash that work well with the current colors.

My Fine Art Floral Designer Series Paper Tutorial is NOW AVAILABLE

My Fine Art Floral Designer Series Paper Tutorial is NOW AVAILABLE.

My tutorial will be FREE with you $60 or more Stampin' Up! order using my Hostess Code at the top right hand side of my blog during the month of February 2021. The tutorial is also available for purchase for $9.95. 

To view sneak peeks of my 12 cards, click HERE


 

I will email you the tutorial within 24 hours.


This Designer Series Paper uses more coordinating colors than listed and there are many colors you can substitute.  The coordinating colors listed are: Bumblebee, Flirty Flamingo, Merry Merlot, Mossy Meadow, Night of Navy, Petal Pink, Pool Party, Poppy Parade, Pumpkin Pie, So Saffron, Terracotta Tile and Whisper White.  Some of the substituted colors I used were Bravo Burgundy, Brilliant Blue, Dusty Durango, Crushed Curry, Fresh Fig, Hello Honey, More Mustard, Pretty Peacock and Tranquil Tide.

In my tutorial, I have created two different cards using the floral side of each of the six patterns.  I also have two different cards that have two variations. There are THREE Fun Fold cards, two of them I have never used on my blog.

Each card uses the Fine Art Floral Designer Series Paper.  I used other Stampin' Up! Products, which include the following dies: Art Gallery, Curvy, Stitched Rectangle and Stitched So Sweetly. I used various stamp sets which include: Art Gallery, Butterfly Gala, Quite Curvy along with other sentiment stamps that can easily be substituted for ones you own. I used many sentiment punches, that include: Banner Pick A Punch, Butterfly Duet, Itty Bitty Accents, Ovals and Tailored Tag. Most of these items can be substituted with ones you already have, I purposely kept that in mind as I designed each card.
