Dragonflies

This card uses stamps from Time to Stamp. The main collage image is from the Lucid Dreams Collection. The others are from a variety of sheets. The background starts with white cardstock. I stamped an abstract image multiple times with Versafine deep lagoon and Brilliance pearlescent orchid. Dried well with a heat tool, sponged a thin coat of gesso over the whole piece to soften the colors, dried well, used Radiant Rain daubers pink azalea and teal zircon gently around the edges, dried well, rubbed just a little of the deep lagoon ink on the very edges to soften them, dried well. On a scrap of white cardstock I splashed circles of the teal zircon dauber, dried with a heat tool, stamped the watch image in each circle using Stazon jet black, tore long edges, rubbed with deep lagoon, dried. Main image is stamped on white cardstock with Versafine deep lagoon, dried well, pink azalea dauber is dabbed along the edges and just a bit in the center of the watch. Stamp the dragonfly part of the main image 2 more times on white cardstock with Brilliance pearlescent orchid and pearlescent jade and cut out dragonflies. Rub a scrap of white cardstock with pink azalea dauber, dry well, sponge on gesso, dry, stamp with quote using Stazon black, tear out, dab edges with teal zircon dauber, dry. Assemble as shown and add wire for dragonfly antenas.
