When this set arrived in the mail I squealed and said "Yay flowers!" Then "Ooooh look dragonflies!"..."No wait, those are the stems." !! My hubby thought I was nuts!! But that dragonfly thought stuck in my head and this card was the result.
Alittle vellum, gold embossing powder and pearls for those big buggy eyes brought this little lady to life! I used my Misti to line up the extra wings (leaves ~hee). Then I stamped an extra set to layer on for movement. My sentiment was created using two words from the set. They were stamped with Ocean Tides ink then embossed with clear embossing powder. This panel was layered onto the card base that was covered with a pretty floral die cut DP. I sprinkled on a few Metallic Gold Sequins from PPP for a bit more glitz!
That's it for me.
The next stop on the hop is the fabulous Kim Bell!
Thanks for stopping by today ~Lisa
