A beautiful Sunday morning sparked the creative juices, to be inspired by a Clean-Lined white and blue card.
Less is More #282 is using stencils this week, YAY! Combined with the Freshly Made Sketches #242, my card was such a zen process 😉
Using ColorBox’s Swirldot 6×6 Stencil, I applied a thick layer of light modelling paste and sprinkled iridescent aqua glitter while wet. Once dry, I brushed away the excess. I die-cut a ribbon from Elizabeth Craft Designs 1 and threaded a strip of aqua vellum paper through the oval circles. Several white and blue vellum dragonflies were die-cut with Penny Black’s “FLUTTERS”. Two layers of white + one layer of blue vellum were pasted together for each dragonfly. The wings were curved and I tied blue thread around the bodies, leaving loose ends. I then put the card together using Nacelle Farrugia’s great sketch from FMS. I also entered my card in the Simon Says: Add Some Shimmer Wednesday Challenge.
Loved the challenges. Thanks for stopping by! 😀
Beautifully elegant and such a crisp and clean design
Thanks so much for playing along and sharing at Less is More this week. Sarah
