Dragonfly Lily

Wow! I fell in love with this fabulous new Dragonfly Lily stamp (R310) as soon as I saw it! It is part of the Stampendous January 2018 release. But better yet, as soon as I saw the new 6" x 6" Cling Crackle Rubber Stamp (6CR002), I knew they were a match made in heaven! The Crackle stamp is the perfect image to reflect the beautiful veining of the dragonfly wings.


The great part of these new 6" x 6" stamps is you can use all of it or part of it (stamp the whole image and use part for another project). I kept my design very Clean And Simple to show off the design of each stamp.  I will be doing another version of this in the future with "water" and "sky", so keep an eye out for this beauty again.

The crackle background is perfect for the butterfly stamp. Definitely looks like the crackle stamp would be a great one to have and would get a lot of use!

I agree that these two stamps are perfect for each other.
Your card is gorgeous; love the way you colored the image
and the crackle.
