I stamped the dragonfly image (sorry, don't know who makes it) and colored it with colored pencils; except for the wings. The wings were painted with an irridescent h20 paint. The color of the wings changes hues when it's tilted. I added flocking to the cat tails. I used green rain dots on the eyes, but first I colored a little of the eyes so it would show through the rain dot. There are three embossed dots on the right side of one green strip. I embossed with a stylus and the circles in a little plastic template that helps you line up eyelets, holes, etc. The wings were debossed from the back like I did the towel in my Dieting Bear card. You can see the shimmer in the wings and more of the dimension the debossing gives the wings in this closeup.
I also cut the corners on the right side of the card. Like I said, lots of details! The "Dream" stamp is from Papertrey Ink.
Here's another little detail for you, my friend Sarah is giving away some fun blog candy, so head over to her blog for a chance to win! Thanks for looking.
