Day 5 - Dragonfly Tag

Final day as card captain this week at Yahoo Group, Enjoy Michael Strong Stamps and I have made another tag. I had my gesso out again playing with mixing colors and textures. I colored the gesso with Radiant Pearls in colors of pink, blue, orange and copper and gave the tag a spritz of glimmer mist. Once the gesso had dried I stamped the mesh background stamp by Stampin Up on the tag.

I made the flower from Tim Holtz die cutter called tattered flowers and the leaves from a Sizzix die cutter.

The dragonfly of course is from the Michael Strong collection. I stamped the dragonfly on a piece of left over textured paper I coated with gesso from the tag I made on day one. I embossed the dragon fly with copper embossing powder. I love the way the dragonfly shimmers in the light.

A sentiment and some ribbon completed the tag. I had a fun week as card captain . I hope you enjoyed my cars and tags this week.
