The first challenge is
Crafting with Dragonflies.

for those who do not have dragonfly images, you can pop over to the challenge blog and get our freebie image to use.
So here is my card...

 I decided to use the Visible Image dragonfly stamp, and repeat stamp the image
on glossy card.
I then embossed with clear embossing powder.
To make the 3D dragonfly I triple embossed a piece of mountboard  (UTEE)just big enough for the image and stamped a black image into the molten embossing powder.
I then used distressed inks around the card to match in with the triple embossed image.
To finish off the image I used an assortment of gems to fill the torso of the dragon fly.
many thanks for calling by, 
Hugs

Pretty exciting to be underway! I was wondering how you made your 3D dragonfly, it is so very cool, and I love the black and blue/green combinations! Great color choices for your embossing and distress inking.
