Hello all!
I made this card for the new sketch challenge blog, Crazy 4 Challenges with the newly released Our Daily Bread designs set, Friendship. I love this scrolly dragonfly image. I stamped with Versamark, then Sage Shadow and clear embossed the image on Very Vanilla. While it was still in the die I sponged with T Holtz and Color Box Chalk Ink, creating the vanilla mat. My base is VV, and in two corners I made my own dp by using Tattered Angels Glimmer Screens (ODBD) and sponging with the same inks. The opposite two corners are K& Co Dp in Ancestry. The center dividers are VV, run through the Big Shot with the Sizzix Wedding EF, sponged with Color Box Chalk Ink. The image is mounted on a textured gold paper that I cut with the Nestie Lattice Pendant and popped up on dimensionals. I used the cut outs in the two corners.
