The Dragonfly Part Deux

Here is my second card using 
"The Dragonfly" from Sweet Pea Stamps. 

I used Vintage Sepia Versamark ink, stamped onto
Paper Trey Ink Rustic White card stock.
It seems like my cards are much more subtle
overall, when I use the brown inks to stamp with.

Another $$ Store rosette from the wedding aisle.
I just tipped the edges lightly with a RV09 Copic and
added some alcohol for the color to blend itself nicely.

I used the Fleur de Lis pendants from Spellbinders
and layered them to resemble a fleur behind the image.
I probably should have used more, but I will another day.
I also used a MS punch on the corners and added a second 
punch behind them in a contrasting glittered green card stock.

Okay, my son is away at camp for the next three days for
school, and I am going to make the most of my un-mommy
time and try and get more stamped images colored and made into
glorious works of art.
So far I'm three for three.
