Dragonfly Garden Slimline Cards

 

I was recently was challenged to make 12 Slimline cards for a swap with the Queens of the Stamp Age team members. So of course I used my new Dragonfly Garden stamp set that is available in December to ALL Stampin' UP! Demonstrators and on January 5th to the public. This stamp set is so fun because it has a punch that matches it and matching Designer Series Paper (DSP). 

Front of my slimline card. I ended up adding a ladybug to each one of my swap and you can see those ones below! 

Inside of the slimline. I made a fun fold card which allows you to see the dragonfly both when the card is opened and closed. 

Can you spot the cute little metal ladybug? She is part of the products that go along with this Mega Suite! 

You can make this card too by shopping online with me and following the steps below.
