Hi everyone
This is an old SU set, but I got it out for a cause. tayloredexpressions is running a card drive for parents who have lost newborns at a local hospital. the symbol they use on cards they give is a dragonfly. I couldn't wait to participate and this is one of the cards I created for this wonderful cause.
I stamped the dragonfly in Stazon and then used both markers and crayons to color it up. I used Taken with Teal, Tempting Turquoise, Night of Navy, Certainly Celery and Sahara Sand to get the colors I wanted. Once the coloring was dry, I ran over it with my versamark marker and embossed it with clear ep.
i ran the card base through the big shot and my swirly texturz plate. I watermarked the green layer with versamark and a stamp from the itty bitty backgrounds.
if you would like more info, you can see this post on my blog http://www.jaydeestamping.com/weblog...of-a-life.html
thanks so much for looking - and for commenting

What a gorgeous amazing card, and the cause is one that is close to my heart -- I had a stillborn son and for a while (before the tendonitis kicked in) I donated homemade baby blankets to the hospital for families who lost a child at or shortly after birth, or stillborn.
I love the color combination on this card and your coloring is perfect.
