PIP Challenge 2316.........A Little Late

 Sponsored by

Hello and welcome.  Monday began a new challenge over at Pammie's Inky Pinkies and this week we are being sponsored by The Cutting Cafe.  I would like to thank them for their sponsorship and for providing the templates were used by the design team.  My card is a tad late thanks to a nasty migraine I've had for the last few weeks (still have it too).  Finally felt a tad better yesterday to finish my card.  I do go to the neurologist today so please send some good thoughts, or prayers, my way.

After printing off the May Word template onto Neenah white card stock, I fussy cut it out before blending some Tim Holtz tumbled glass, milled lavender and dusty concord distress inks over my card and cut out words.  I then stamped the solid leaves I bought last year and haven't used yet from Colorado Craft Company's Majestic Moth in mowed lawn distress ink before stamping the leaves outline in memento black over them.  After popping up my concord "MAY", I stamped the dragonfly from the same set onto scrap Neenah white card stock, colored using copic markers and then fussy cut it out to add to my card.  Once that was added, I decided it needed something else and pulled out my punched scrap shapes and added those to the card before adding some old Stampendous dragonfly stickers.  The finishing touches were ice stickles highlighting the dragonfly wings and flower centers.  For the inside, I cut apart one of the sayings from the Majestic Moth clear set to create the inside of the card.
