Today’s slimline thank you card was created with the Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Punch and the Naturally Gilded Specialty Designer Series Paper. Gold makes such a rich statement and I adore the details of the dragonflies!
WHAT I LOVE! The Naturally Gilded Specialty Designer Series Paper (part of the NEW Stampin’ Up! On-Line Exclusive Products) can be dressed up with dragonflies or be a beautiful background all on it’s own!
