Dani Reading

This is such a relaxing card!  Dani is reading in her flower garden and enjoying the dragonflies!  I used a MS punch for the lattice and colored the images with Prismacolor pencils and Gamsol.  I also found this stash of old lace (had bought it at a yard sale years ago) in my garage.  A full bag of lace!  What do I do with that much lace?  Narrow, medium, wide, all sizes -- white, ivory, beige, a few colors.  Anyway, I took a piece of the ivory and colored it with crushed olive distress ink and put some of it on the card.  I love the way this card turned out!  Again, I used Sunny Daze glitter by http://www.sparklensprinkle.com/ on the dragonfly wings.  http://www.sparklensprinkle.com/ is also going to lauch a blog hop so stay tuned.  You may win a set of stamps and Dani's Garden Swing set is one of the sets that will be given away!
