I started with a scrap of Ranger embossed white cs that I've had in my scrap bin for some time. From this, I added the white embossed flower , then colored using my Peerless watercolors and die cut it out adding a layer of foam underneath. I then die cut the layered dragonfly, and made it a bit dimensional with foam tape and balled up glue dots. Then I stamped and embossed the sentiment, and embossed it with silver ep. Then looking at it, I decided it needed a bit more to the plain white (I know, some of you are hating me for this) but it just looked to plain. So I splattered some of the peerless carefully avoiding what I had already done. Here's a close up...
This will go to my mom for her Birthday, which is right after Mother's Day!
