A monochromatic dragonfly card using 'Happiest Day'

Here is a cute monochromatic card!

I love the way it turned out!

It is a totally Susie card.

And you can make it too!

 

I used the

#163777- 2024-2026 In Color 6x6 Designer paper= $12.50 pg. 98

This is just such an adorable stamp set!

There are no dies that go with it, 

so for the dragonfly I fussy cut it out with my Paper Snip Scissors.

I then added some Wink of Stella over the dragonfly for some added sparkle.

 

I stamped the words onto a strip of Basic White card stock

& punched them out using the 

#162888- Heartfelt Hexagon Punch= $23.00 pg. 96.
