Bee Sweet
This new type of embossing folder is the bomb! Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing folders make extra deep, super crisp impressions, like 3D on steroids lol. I could have easily stamped the bee and fussy cut it, but since I had the Detailed Dragonfly Thinlits, I decided to try that out on the stamped be.

The Blooms and Wishes stamp set and the coordinating Designer Series Paper are just so darn pretty! I really wanted a Z fold card that could be made with 8 1/2 x 11 card stock and that would fold to the regular card size of 5 1/2 x 4 1/4. So I fiddled with a piece of scrap card stock until I got it right!
Product List
- Cut Thick Whisper White 5 ½ x 9 inches.
- With the long side at the top, score at 4 ¼ and 7 ¼
- Cut a piece of Whisper White 3 x 3 ¼ inches
- The Designer Series Paper pieces are: 1 ½ x 5 ¼, 2 ¾ x 5 ¼, and 4 x 5 ¼ inches

Shabby Chic Dragonfly
I got design idea for this card from fellow Demo, Wendy Klein. I never would have thought to use Designer Series Paper for the detailed dragonfly thinlit. It's gorgeous in person, and I can't get a photograph to do it justice.
Product List
- Stamp the images from Timeless Textures stamp set in Smoky Slate ink. Stamp the splatters in Versamark and then use Copper embossing powder.
- Sponge Blushing Bride and Smoky Slate inks over the images.
- Cut the solid dragonfly thinlit (backing) in Copper Foil
- Cut the detailed overlay from Falling In Love DSP. Then brush with Clear Wink of Stella to add a sheen of glimmer.

Wonder With Water
This simple design worked up nicely. The sequins in the bottom corner were not supposed to be there, but I smeared black ink in that spot and had to cover it up lol.
I get the watercolor look for the flower, I stamped in black Stazon, then used my Stampin' Spritzer to apply water. Then I inked up the stamp in Crushed Curry and rolled the edges of stamp into Watermelon Wonder. I then gave it a bit of extra shimmer with clear Wink of Stella. I tried several different color combinations of inks for the flower, but I liked this combo best because it popped.
