For todays Ways to Use it Challenge, WT72 - Let's Stick Together. The main background is stamped with weathered in Elegant Eggplant, dry sponged to soften, and then restamped with weather again in Sage Shadow. The panel background is stamped with weather in Elegant Eggplant and overstamped with cheesecloth in Sage Shadow. (Somehow to me this stamp set just screams for these 2 BG stamps.) The dragonfly is watercolored using reinkers and the water is then sea sponged for a little dimension. The wings were watercolored, and then coated with Scotch Tacky Adhesive (the point of the whole challenge) and then sprinkled with dazzling diamond dust and heat set. Thanks for looking!

Wow, you have created an amazing card. This is the prettiest card I have seen made with this set, love the colors, the b/g's you used and, of course, the dazzling wings! Just beautiful!

I love the dazzling wings! I'd love to recreate something like that! The colors of Eggplant and Sage are beautiful together. I created a card with that color combo but it's not as striking as yours.
