I am so excited - I received an awesome RAK from Lisa Lara that included several pieces of cardstock that were punched with various MS border punches. So I wanted to design this card around one of them. I picked this flower one since it went well with the tea party story! The dragonfly is from Taylored Expressions - after I used markers on it, stamped it and cut it out with an Oval Nestability, I colored it with Spica Glitter pens and added some Amuse Twinkler stickers. I used my MFT DieNamics and PTI felt to create the clouds. The top white panel was embossed with the Swirls embossing folder. This sketch was way outside my comfort zone!

What an elegant dragonfly, with not one but both pairs of wings *out of the box* - and having just this minute looked at the sketch challenge, I can recognise that too.
