Fun challenges today! For the MIX (flying things), I used ink, Copics, straw ribbon and stickles for the mixFor the F4A, I have a wooden (bamboo) frame image.
I stamped the bamboo frame, colored & die cut it with a rectangle. I used a craft knife to cut out the inside before attaching it on top of my quote. The two sizes of dragonflies were stamped on scraps of the same blue dp I used for the background. After fussy cutting them, I added stickles on top. I added some straw like woven ribbon and two brads I colored with Copics to match.
Thanks so much for looking! It's also on my blog: The Write Stuff

Beautiful card for both challenges, Julie. You used the dragonfly theme so well throughout your card....and the blue card makes it heavenly. The straw ribbon adds a terrific textural interest.

This is simply beautiful, so serene and joyful. I really love the sentiment, but the dragonflies and framing are just awesome! Gorgeous background paper, too!
