There is nothing like escaping into my craft room and surrounding myself with all things pretty. That peace of quiet that is mine alone once everyone else has called it a night has come to mean the world to me.
This is another card made for the dragonfly card collection over at Taylored Expressions. I used the inspiration photo from Melissa Phillips for the color and texture inspiration. I sprinkled Martha Stewart's microbeads over the flowers and added pearls to the centers. More glitter on the wings of the Unity dragonfly and a Papertrey sentiment finish off the card.
New Graphic 45 paperline...Baby and Bride Collection
When I saw this new line I was immediately taken in by it. It is so soft and pretty...I grabbed one of each. The card is based on this week's sketch from CPS 155. I inked all the edges in Toffee and then went over it all with a very light dry brushing of Satin Creme paint.
Don't you love this scrunched up flower? My new cyber friend Kristi Lockart over at Honestly Speaking...has a great tutorial on putting one together. I absolutely adore the way it came out and I will be making many more!
Blessings, Patty
