praying dragonflies

More Dragonfly Dreams emboss resist and watercolor. Oh, and hand lettering.

SU's Dragonfly Dreams as well as Sending Thoughts. Although the color doesn't show up all that well, I do love the Pool Party and copper combination.

This card made itself. Well, after the black embossing was on there. If you've never worked with water color paper, you need to try it! I just sprayed it down really good and dropped reinker on it where I wanted the color. It bloomed out EXACTLY how it should! I did dab a bit of the excess moisture off and tipped and tilted the card so it would all act like I wanted it too.

If you're unsure how to do this, let me know. I'll personally show you if we live close enough so I can!

Stampin' Up has done it again! Designed the most wonderfully perfectly eye-poppingly delicious stamp and die Dragonfly Dreams bundle. I can't get enough of it and so I keep on and on using these dragonflies On EVERYTHING!! The card (above) has a water color background and if you look closely you can see I used Wink of Stella on the dragonfly as well as the Congrats. (Below) Is an example on a single layer direct-to-paper design with an embossed dragonfly and then masking and sponging.
