Dragonfly Embossed Card
For the card front: Turn the card with the fold at the top. Cut 6 3/8"x4 7/8" Robin’s Red gray tapestry paper. Knot the ribbon near one end, then wrap it vertically over the paper, 1" from the left end with the knot 1½" from the top. Glue the ends to the back, then glue the paper centered on the front.
Cut 5½"x4½" white cardstock. Press the two Distress ink pads over the craft sheet several times, slightly overlapping the edges. Spray with water 2-3 times, then press the cardstock into the watery ink. Lift the panel and set aside to dry. When dry, rub thoroughly with the printing pouch.
Follow the directions above to place the rubber bands crosswise around the stamping block, angling the bands without overlapping them. Ink the bands with VersaMark&trade,; then stamp the panel. Turn the cardstock 90 degrees, ink the bands again, and stamp again.
Cover the inked cardstock with silver embossing powder, tap off the excess, and heat to melt. When cool, rub the cardstock with the printing pouch. Repeat the embossing process with Powder blue embossing powder, again stamping both directions.
Trim the embossed panel to 5"x3¾", then mat on white cardstock with 1/16" borders. Glue centered on the front, slipping it under the ribbon. Place the Dazzles™ dragonflies and sentiment and the rhinestones as shown.
For the inside: Cut 5½"x4½" Robin’s Red gray tapestry paper and mat on black cardstock with 1/16" borders. Glue centered on the inside. Cut a 5"x4" white cardstock and follow steps 2 through 4 to color, stamp, and emboss.
