Today I get the privilege of sharing a new line of stamps and dies with you from Inky Stamper! The person behind Inky Stamper is my friend Chelsea Comer. She just started her own line of stamps and dies! When she asked me if I'd like to design some projects for her release I jumped at the chance to help my friend. She sent me her new Dragonfly stamp set. Check out how cute he is!
Below I have a video for you featuring this stamp set on two projects. Check it out, and if you like the video give it a thumbs up to let me know.

Now let's take a closer look at the projects I made.
I wanted the Dragonfly to be flying over a field of flowers. I used the flower from this stamp set as my starting point for this background. I stamped it with Clear Pigment ink and embossed it with clear powder. Then I was able to inkblend over the top of the flowers, making a ink resist background. To get this sunset look I used three Distress Oxide ink pads and some ink blending tools. From top to bottom the ink colors I used are Seedless Preserves, Picked Raspberry and Wild Honey. To get such a seamless blend I think paper choice is key. I used Neenah Classic Crest Solar White card stock. It's my favorite for ink blending, the ink seems to sit on top of the paper a bit longer, allowing you to move the ink around. To finish off this background I had to splatter it with water, my FAVORITE thing to do with Distress Oxide ink. And now I had the perfect scene for my Dragonfly.
I used my Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers to color in both my dragonflies. And what you can not see in the pictures is that I covered the wings and the eyes with a Wink of Stella clear shimmer pen.
Next up the Treat Box.
I loved coloring in this cute little guy so much I wanted to make a version of him that matched the ink blended background. It's so much fun to customize the dragonfly to go with your creation.
For the background on this box I stamped the cloud repeatedly over the entire box in Whip Cream ink. LOVE this cloud stamp! And then I used another clever image from the Dragonfly stamp set, the flight path image. It really adds to the playful feel of the Dragonfly.
That wraps up my two projects featuring the new Dragonfly stamp set by Inky Stamper. Be sure to click over to the Inky Stamper store to check out all the stamps and dies in this launch. And a great big CONGRATS to my friend Chelsea Comer for spreading her wings, reaching for the stars and making her dream a reality!
So, which dragonfly is your favorite? The more traditional colors or the bight and bold?
