I made up some background paper first then made two similar but not identical cards with it.
This one was for Jessica and the other for Erin.
Firstly I dribbled some masking fluid down some watercolour paper and left it to dry. Then I sprayed colour over it and sprinkled with some salt crystals and again waited until it dried. I brushed away the salt then stamped the dragonflies, painted them with H2Os and once they were dry I coated them with diamond glaze. I then stamped the dandelions and added little dots of stickles to highlight parts. The quote is stamped and embossed on a slice of mica. I like splattering gold over the top to get little highlights, I did try sprinkling gold embossing powder on the surface and heating from underneath but it tends to just melt right into the thick paper so I splattered with gold Krylon pen.
