For my project, I've created a simple design featuring one of the Sale-A-Bration freebies (the Oh-So-Ombre paper) as well as the new Dragonfly Garden stamp (and coordinating punch!) It's a simple design that allows several of the coordinating papers to be featured.

Following the Ombre feel of the paper, I started playing with the ink on the dragonfly stamp to add in a little more interest to the dragonfly itself. To get this look, I first inked it in Rococo Rose, and then traced overtop with a Blackberry Bliss marker on its abdomen and head. I randomly swiped the marker across the wings, and none of my stamped images came out exactly the same! And who can resist glitter? To add a little sparkle, I also gave a shimmery feel using Wink of Stella. I think it's a perfect touch!
