Succulent Garden Dragonfly

Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a card using your favorite Occasions Catalog Accessory. Unfortunately, I didn't buy much for my preorder and my next order hasn't arrived yet. So, until I get some new goodies, my favorite non-stamp product from the catalog is the Succulent Garden DSP. Just look how gorgeous this paper is! I love the colors and patterns.

For my card, I wanted to highlight some of the fun patterns. I took my color cues from the paper to create my dragonfly and stamped piece of Whisper White. The color on the dragonfly was added with the new watercolor pencils. I love how I can blend colors to create more interesting stamped images. After adding my layers, I realized I didn't leave room for my sentiment. Thank goodness I had some space up top. To finish off my card, I added a few silver and sweet sugarplum enamel shapes.
