Wonderful and delightful challenge today Betty... thanks for the great colors... BUT I think I need to get a color chart or something... I don't think I have the right colors... I used a reddish background but you certainly can't tell it from the picture... Oh well.. I guess the color police will be after me today...
I sprited some paper with reinkers.. then I embossed the flowers using a black and then a copper powder. then I used my trusty spellbinders to create the octagon shapes... I wanted to use some more of the new Tim Holtz embossing folders... so I used the patchwork one... these folders come two in a package... and they are really nice.. I didn't go wild with them... shame on me.. but am really trying to cut back???? I really didn't say that... some one else snuck in here as I was doing this...
I used my distressing inks to create the color on it... and then cut it in half to create the band... The dragonfly is a gold outline sticker that is put onto copper mesh and then cut out...
Hope you have a fun day... and that you enjoy the weather... no matter what it is... we are having an overcast day that is trying to rain on us... and we are doing the rain dances so that we do get more rain... we need it very much so..
Thanks for taking a look at my card..
Love, Light and Peace...Bonnie
