Today's card is a beautiful dragonfly from Graciellie's Designs that I made for a card of encouragement. It is from her Hope and Strength digital package.
I started by sizing the dragonfly to be slightly larger that the A2 card front and tilted it so that it was 'off the page'. I layered the selected sentiment to the left and then printed on 110# Neenah cardstock.
I decided on a monochromatic coloring scheme using Copic colors R56, R85, R83, R81. The black body was done using N6 and N8 and the eyes were done using Y26.
After trimming the edges, I added the patterned background and then secured both to the front of an A2 card base to complete today's design.
