Good morning! There is a BRAND NEW release on the block from Simon Says Stamp called Crafty Hugs - so I thought I'd drop by quickly this morning with my first card using some of the new release!
I started off by masking off a panel of white cardstock and blending a background with 3 colors of Distress Oxide inks - Wilted Violet, Mermaid Lagoon, and Peacock Feathers. I also added a good splatter of Perfect Pearls over that background, then removed the tape and set it aside to dry.
I die cut the beautiful new Etched Dragonfly Die from white cardstock, and assembled it directly on that panel with a bit of liquid glue, then covered the wings with White Blizzard Nuvo Glitter drops, and the body with Silver Moondust Nuvo Glitter Drops.
I added the sentiment using the new CZ Design So Far So Good Stamp Set - stamped in black Versafine Ink using my MISTI and stamping several times for a nice dark impression over the distress oxide. Finally, mounted it on a card base created with coordinating cardstock!
