This is for our Alphabet Challenge and D is for Dragonfly! I thought and thought and finally came up with this, and it is from an old set that I haven't used since 2010! (I looked through my gallerry! LOL) So it is for the USEIT in 2016 Challenge to ink up some our stamps that haven't seen ink ever or in a long time!
I had this already stamped for some reason, and used it on a panel from a gelli print that I had done at Christmas time with my granddaughter. We had used various colors and stencils that she had chosen. I was demonstrating the gelli plate for her. Then I added navy ribbon and a dragonfly charm, and gold cord. Oh, so maybe I have 2 Ds! Dragonfly stamp and dagonfly charm.
Thanks for looking!

Sharon, you did good! That is such a pretty dragonfly image and you have paired it beautifully with that gelli print background. The dragonfly charm is of course a perfect embellishment.

Sharon - This is dynamite! Love the details on the dragonfly stamp. I never bought this set. Your card makes me want it! The charm and second dragonfly is a dynamic accent. Love the background. The ribbon is delightful. Great card for Letter D and for the use it challenge. TFS

Really nice. I bought this set at a garage sale, but haven't used it yet. I don't know much about gelli printing but this looks really neat. Pretty ribbon bow with the charm too. A good "D" card idea!

Your card is beautiful. I love your gelli print bg That image is perfect. There is definitely a season for all things. We see that year after year and everyday in our lives.

Sharon, this is wonderful! I love the colorful Gelli print as a background to the monochromatic image, and the charm was a great addition!
