Anisoptera

  Hello Nomad friends!  It's time for a little reminder for Let's Squash It! Grasshopper Green challenge.   We want you to use lots of green, include an insect, or any bug of your choice cos we won't be consulting entomologists, and at least one embossing folder of course.  I've used Sheena Douglas Twisted Vines folder and a beautiful dragonfly stamp from Rubber Dance stamps

I embossed mid-green card and smeared the embossed texture with dark green ink.  Then I cut the panel, gave it a self-coloured mount and stuck it on a dark green base card.  I stamped and fussy cut the dragonfly, added some colour with blue and green Promarkers and blitzed it with glitter, cos dragonflies are sparkly.  Maybe a bit over the top with the bling, but it does sparkle LOL.  Sentiment to be decided!

 

 
I hope you get some time to grab your embossing folders, your greens and your bugs and join the fun.   There is gorgeous inspiration from the team and in the linky gallery.  You have until the end of the month, which is a short one don't forget!!!  Carpe Diem!

 Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz
