Dragonflies
Hello, Crafty Friends! My second post today because I have a special card to share with you. Dragonflies are very close to my heart because as an amateur photographer, I just can't seem to catch a photo of them. So I love dragonfly images. The dragonfly you see here is sparkling with Twinkling H2O's. The background paper is special as well. It is a wax crayon resist technique creating a batik effect that is fun and uncomplicated to do. The effects are so interesting and adding the dragonfly images stamped to the background paper adds more dimension to the piece. I was inspired to create this card because of a challenge on Crafting with Dragonflies. It will be entered in several other challenges. Allsorts -Add some sparkle; Catch The Bug - Anything Goes; Inspire Me Fridays– Anything Goes!; Sister Act Card Challenge - Cards, Always Anything Goes; ABC Challenge - Make it Sparkle; Alota Rubber Stamps - Bugs, bugs, bugs; Our Creative Corner - Anything goes; Sweet Stamps - Stamped background paper

Simply stunning. Love the technique you used and looks fabulous. Beautiful colour combination. Such a lovely layout. Thanks for joining in on our first challenge over at Crafting with Dragonflies. Ina DT.
This background is gorgeous. Your resist looks sparkly - so pretty, not at all like the ones I've tried.
I'm always very careful about giving cards with dragonfly images because here in BC, our pallative care society has adopted the dragonfly as it's logo. I love dragonfly images, and yours is wonderful, but I worry about sending someone the wrong message.
Such a beautiful background technique! My mom is a quilter and batiks are her favorite fabrics, she would just love your card too. Thank-you so much for joining us at Crafting With Dragonflies for our first challenge.

What an interesting background - love those colours too. Your dragonfly is so pretty as well. Thanks for sharing this with us for our first ever challenge at Crafting with Dragonflies - hope to see you back again! Susan (DT)
I love the effect you created with your background. I was just thinking about Twinkling H2O's, so it is fun to see you use them in your card. Don't you just love when something you try comes together so well like it did in your card, here? Thanks for joining us at the SIster Act Card Challenge this week.
I always get excited when I see a dragonfly in real life and you've done a great job of creating this one with the wonderful background too. Thanks so much for sharing it with us at Our Creative Corner. Margie x
