Roberta is our hostess this week and she has chosen blackberry bliss, daffodil delight, garden green and for dessert: bling! I have no Blackberry, so I substituted Elegant Eggplant. No dessert for me this week – just couldn’t make it work.
Using the smooshing technique (ink on acetate sheet/spritz with water/press onto wc panel), I created my bg on watercolor cs, and then spattered with diluted eggplant, green and white acrylic paint. I also stamped a bit (after stamping off) with the splat stamp from French Foliage. Die cut my frame, including a garden green mat, and stamped more ink spats on that. Assembled all and added dragonflies. No sentiment this time – I like to have some cards that do not include a specific sentiment.

Gosh, this beautiful card reminds me of my grandmother's wildflower garden and all the dragonflies that used to be flying around there. This is gorgeous Maura- so beautifully done with this weeks colors too! ~Karen.

Beautiful, Maura! The dragonflies dipping into the watercolor panel reminds me of the dragonflies that fly around and dip into my parents' pool. Is it summer yet?
