My rubber is all dusty!!

I hate it when that happens!
I have been so deep in the world of digital images
that I haven't actually stamped a main image in months(?).
I finally broke down and mounted a mountain of rubber
and started inking them all up!

I got this beautiful Sweet Pea image months ago.

She is aptly titled, "The Dragonfly".

I am just insane about coloring fleurs to match
my projects lately. I found these satin roses at the $$ Store
in the wedding aisle. They were white, but after a bit
of coloring with Copics and then dipping the fleur in
rubbing alcohol, they are a perfect match to my card!
I like the way the use of the alcohol leaves the ribbon soft,
not all stiff like I have experienced with just using the Copics.
I destashed with a butt load of Dew Drops!
I have had these forever and really needed to make use of them.

I popped on some Sizzix corners and highlighted them with
some "Patina" Stickles.
I got to use some more of this gorgeous satin ribbon also
snagged from the $$ Store. Wish I had hoarded more of this
ribbon when they had it. Added in a green stick pin and
voila!!!

I'll be back tomorrow with another version of this same
Sweet Pea image, but in another color scheme.
Let me know whatcha think.
