LaBlanche Dragonfly Dreams – by Deb Saaranen
Deb’s card today is an absolute breath of fresh air — something so welcome on this very cold winter day here in Upper Michigan! You can almost see the dragonfly wanting to take flight here. Deb colored them lightly with her Copic markers and Spica pens for that bit of sparkle — stunning and so realistic! The stamp used is by LaBlanche, known for their highly detailed images. If you haven’t used a LaBlanche stamp before, I think you’d like them. They are silicone stamps on thick white foam. Very lightweight, easy to handle and clean, and the images they create are just beautiful! Their designs tend towards vintage and nature themes. Let’s look at Deb’s card:
Isn’t this gorgeous! I love all the white space with the fabulous texture.
