Go with all your heart

Hubby deserted me tonight to go to the hockey game, so I decided to be productive and create something pretty.  I planned to post it tomorrow after I'd photographed it in the morning light, but was so happy with it and so impatient (shocking, I know LOL!) that I had to post it now....please forgive the bad lighting of the photo...

This card was created using a Sweet Pea stamp from Paper Jewels called Bamboo Seranade.  The sentiment is from an SU set, the background I clear embossed using a very old background stamp from SU, and the bug thing I cut out of velum cardstock with a spellbinder die cut and coloured using my copics with an airgun.  The image is coloured with copics too, using direct to paper as well as airbrush.

The weekend is here, and the weathers been good, so I'm planning some gardening for tomorrow, wish me luck that the weeds pull easily and the spiders and insects hide :-)

  1. This is outstanding! All of your elements from the background, to the dragonfly, work perfect together. It's as if they were created for your image. Beautiful coloring of your image.

  4. Kristina,

    This is fabulous. One of my favourite cards of yours so far. The image is stunning and I love how you do those vellum insects. I have got to grab some from you next time we get together.

  5. Very beautiful. The background and dragonfly really enhance the image nicely, which is colored so expertly by the way.

  8. I can see why you were impatient to post this. ITS GORGEOUS! You have coloured it so beautifully. I always end up taking a photo of mine in the middle of the night too but never seem to get time in the mornings. Thanks for your lovely comments on my blog by the way
