Childrens cards are so much fun to make, because generally, anything goes. I used the Bugs and Kisses stamp set. The main image background was brayered in shades of blue, the ground was sponged on with various shades of green, and stamped with the fern stamp in the Watercolor Minis set. I sketched in the fence by hand and masked the sun. The dragonfly's wings were stamped onto vellum cardstock, embossed, cut out and mounted onto the body. This is for a special 8 year old! TFL

I'm not 8 unfortunately, but I sure love this card! Beautifully brayered sky and I love the fence you hand drew ~ how wonderfully creative is this? Love your sentiment, too. You won the prize with the cuddled bg and dps! Totally awesome. My complements!
