Dragonfly Summer

Well, today it  is most definitely NOT summer, we've had torrential rain for most of the morning, making it a great day to stay indoors and craft. Which is a real treat as I've had all my craft stuff put away for a while to make room for guests. So while there's a deluge outside I'm going to deluge you with cards!


I've just realised I accidentally made a one layer card - they used to terrify me and now I'm getting more and more frequently drawn to them.

The dragonfly and leaf stamps are from a very, very old set of Woodware stamps called "In the jungle" - it was one of the first sets of clear stamps I bought so it must be at least 15 years old.  I stamped using a grey Versafine pad and used mint and grey water based markers to colour everything.

I am sharing this with

This is a lovely card, Jane! Your dragonflies are so pretty in mint and grey. We have rain here, too, it's torrential! Goodbye, summer!

Love the dragon flies on this card. I saw a small one hovering this morning which is late for this time of year. Still quite a few butterflies round though. Hugs Mrs A.
