April InKing Royalty Blog Hop
Welcome to InKing Royalty’s April Blog Hop! During this year’s blog hops, we are having fun with our stamping favorites – our favorite themes for seasonal cards and projects. This month’s projects feature a mix of butterflies and dragonflies – just in time for Spring. We are excited to share our creations with you today! After you read my post, I hope you’ll hop over to the next person on the list at the base of this post.
I needed a Mother’s Day card and decided to use The Dandy Garden Suite to make it. This fabulous suite can be found in the January-June Mini Catalog and will be continuing on into the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog.
Here’s my card:
Here’s the outside of the card
And here’s the inside
I just LOVE that little swarm of dragonflies!
Here’s the recipe:

2 pieces of Basic White measuring 3 3/8 x 4 3/8 in.
1 piece of Misty Moonlight Cardstock measuring 4 1/2 x 7 in. scored at 3 1/2
