A New Challenge

 






It's new...and it's a great challenge!  "Seize the Birthday" is new to me (and my old brain is keeping me from adding the image to my blog!) and it's currently guest-hosted by an online friend, Leslie Miller. 

I chose my very favorite dragonfly stamp for this card, and I'll admit that I made at least 3 images that I ended up discarding.  What I like about this particular card are the techniques I used:  Lindy's Shaker colors blended to create the background and Diamond Stickles to add some glitter to the dragonfly's wings, finished off with waterdrop adhesive embellishments.

Oh, hey, Evelyn! I'm glad you found this fun challenge and are playing along today! I'm really struck by the shimmer on your dragonfly. What a beautiful stamp that is. So much detail in the wings. I also love those water drop elements which are just right with the dragonfly.

Yay! So glad you found us, and joined the Seize the Birthday party too!! Your dragonfly looks amazing - love the glitter on its wings. And the water droplet embellishments are perfect - it is actually like the dragonfly is skimming on top of some water. Awesome card! Please do join in again!
