Welcome to Addicted to Stamps and More #141 where my fabulous design team and I are inviting you to join us in showcasing cards that are *Anything Goes*.
As you well know, I love my butterflies, but I also have a fascination with dragonflies (the images of them...the real ones are scary, all that random flittering and fluttering!). I discovered a sweet new dragonfly image over at So Suzy Stamps that I *had* to order and *had* to ink up. Aren't those swirls and twirls so pretty! I went with a 'first time simple' approach, using three colours of Memento dew drops, as well as a heaping helping of stickles to create shimmer and a Winnie and Walter die cut and sentiment. I have plans to colour them with my chameleon pens at some point...lots of possibilities...
For extra 'join us' incentive, the winner will receive 4 digis from Sweet Pea Stamps.

Prize is 4 digis from the store
After
visiting my wonderfully talented team mates' creations, which are
guaranteed to dazzle and delight, design your Anything Goes card/project to share in the
ATSM gallery. I'm looking forward to being inspired by your
creativity!

ReplyDeleteThose are some fancy dragonflies with all their swirls and shimmer and beautiful colors, Carol.
ReplyDeleteI love dragonflies too Carol, but I also love the real ones as well. There is just something magical about them as they sparkle, flutter and flitter around. I love the iridescence look they have. They just capture my attention just like your card has! I love your dragonflies and I love how you stamped them in a few colors. The stickles sparkle looks so pretty and makes them look more real. Such a great card my friend! Hugs, Brenda
