I made this card some time ago but never posted it, so today it gets the spotlight. I used some GinaK bubblegum pink cardstock, along with a strip of watercolor paper that I embossed with an Anna Griffin ef, then colored randomly with inks and markers. I used a Martha Stewart punch to create the doily borders and the dragonfly was done with a Gina Marie Designs die - which was also colored with assorted pastel colors of inks and markers. The sentiment is from Sweet 'n Sassy and I added a couple random gemstones just for fun.
I'll enter this into a new challenge I just found called
It's a challenge to use embossing folders and their first challenge is
Thanks for checking in with me today and I hope you have a great weekend!
