Hi! I made this card as a "Get Well" stand by card, for when I will need one. I'm using it in the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge#44!
The Dragon was so much fun to color! I used my glaze pens to give him texture, because they really raise up! I love how all of the colors came together. I didn't love hand cutting him out! I stipple brushed some grey and black right around him. Then in the Red FIERY stickles, I added some PK Glitz Copper Ultra-Fine Glitter, to add a bit of pizzaz to the card! I made a mock ribbon out of 3 black chipboard circles and put a red "rhinestone" circle on each. I LOVE the sentiment! I hope you enjoy looking at him, as much as I enjoyed making him!
He IS Able,
Traci S.

Hi Traci, what a fun card..I have this stamp and love it.. I have only made one card with it and it is in my slideshow at the bottom of my blog if you want to check it out..It is so cool how two people color the image and make it their own huh.
