September at Paper Dragonfly Creative Challenges with Pattie's Creations!

Here we are in September!  Where has the year gone?  I can't say I am sad to see summer fading a bit though!  It has been a long hot wet summer!   However, it has been spectacular for dragonflies!  I have seen tiny, tiny dragonflies all the way up to some pretty huge dragonflies!  They are large enough I can see all the segments of the body and the eyes and head and for me to be able to see that ....well, they are big!😸 

 So that leads us to this month's theme at Paper Dragonflies Creative Challenges for September which is "Time Flies- Clock and Dragonflies"     You can make anything you want from cards to 3D pieces using clocks and dragonflies."  This month you must include a dragonfly; they are not optional for this month.  We are being sponsored by the awesome Pattie's Creations Etsy!  I used "Dragonflies Fly" for my project!

I have been smitten with my love of kraft cardstock again and can't seem to stop using it!  For this card I colored the image with Copics using a pale lavender for the background because this scene reminded me of Monet's waterlilies paintings.  I layered the cardstock on some patterned paper and fussy cut a couple of the envelopes to pop on foam dots by the sentiment.  I made the sentiment in Photoshop and printed on the cardstock before adding the colored image.  I used several different pops of color on the dragonflies cause the ones I have been seeing are so many different wonderful colors!  We hope to see you playing with us this month at Paper Dragonfly Creative Challenges!  Many thanks to Pattie's Creations for sponsoring us!
