Sept 23, 2008 - Dragonfly

"Miss You card "5"w x 7"h
I love Quietfire Designs Dragonfly and word stamp, so I decided to use it for this weeks Dragonfly challenge.

I used glossy cardstock and rubber stamped both sizes of dragonflies using Ranger's Resist stamp pad. Then using a sponge, applied various dye inks all over the page. I used Adirondack Kaleidacolor "Creole Spice" & Distress Aged Mahogany & Dried Marigold. Then lightly misted a melt art mat and lay my gloss paper face down on the moisture. lifted it off and let dry. The rubber stamped with a small maple leaf (Old Island #144A) using Versafine "Vintage Sepia" & "Spanish Moss". Rubber stamped the small dragonfly in the upper left hand corner with Brilliance "Crimson Copper" and embossed it with Garnet embossing powder. The word "Dragonfly" was stamped with Staz On "Olive". I wrote the other words with a Micron black pen. Mounted this to a beautiful maroon cardstock and did a fine line border using a Sakura "Gold" gel pen #625.
