This week's CCEE challenge was issued by Jojot. She gave us a great sketch with the twist of using monochromatic colors.
I really like the colors of my card today and the simplicity of it, but now that I am looking at the picture of it, it looks way too plain.
Take a look at the other team members cards {url=http://cceestampers.blogspot.com/] HERE[/url]. We welcome anyone to join us in the challenge and you can get the details on the blog.

The dragonflies caught my attention. I like it the way it is, but if you think it is too plain wrap some ribbon around the bottom or even just a little bow. Or maybe stamp a few dragonflies cut out and pop up with dimensionals.

I have this stamp set still, too, and this is one of my favorite dragonfly images. I love how you've used it on your pretty card with the coordinating, dp, Shirt. I don't think it's plain at all. You've got enough going on with the images and dp that you really wouldn't want to overdo it with extra embellishments.

I think this dragonfly beauty is perfect...the blending of the images with the gorgeous dp was clever.....and I think anything else would have hidden their beauty.....I know that we all feel a need sometimes to 'add a bit more', but often it is better to keep it clean and crisp...I love it

Wow I love your very pretty red and green dragonflies, "plain" no way sis you have got to be kidding ! It's a wonderful design, and just perfect as it is.
