Dragonflies - Diamond Fold Card
For some reason my camera did not photograph this card very well so I have included an image of the main card for you to see the correct colours.
This is a diamond fold card. There are some similar cards on the Craftsuprint website which have a CUP TV episode showing how to make them. I want to point out that my cards are made a little bit differently to these other cards and I have included written instructions in the kit, which also have photographs. The kit includes a main card body, a sheet of decoupage and two envelope pieces.
The flowers and dragonflies on the centre panel can be decoupaged.

I printed the card base onto good quality white card, the decoupage onto photo paper and the envelope onto 120gsm paper.
I scored, cut out and folded as per the instructions. I cut out and added all the decoupage using foam pads.
I put a gold gem to the centre of the two flowers. Because I am useless at cutting out the back end of dragonflies, I cut them off. I replaced with cream,white, and gold seed beads threaded onto wire. This enable me to turn the tails and I used silicone glue to fix them.
I made up the envelope and the result is a beautiful card with matching envelope that will appeal to many people and can be used for all occasions.
