100% Stamping - Nature Inspired

 Virginia's Views Challenge

It's a glorious day here, has been in fact for the past few days. Extremely hot - almost too hot but don't like to complain about such glorious weather!  In fact, it has inspired my latest make - oh and my extremely unkempt front lawn - I like to call it a wildlife haven and that's the excuse I'm sticking with.

So - for this card I used 100% stamps. Every single image was stamped with inks being applied to certain parts of the stamp to build up colour. I'm especially happy with my dragonfly which came out amazingly well first time. I love the colours on his wings.


I'd like to enter this card into the following blog challenges:

    A beautiful card Michelle and perfect for your theme this week. But sadly it's not eligible (as per the rules on our blog) as it's backlinked - posted on your blog before our challenge started.

    Hope you can join us at Allsorts with another piece of your lovely work.
