Summer's Natural Beauty



Time for another card as part of the Stamping Dragon design team! Our cards aren't due till thursday, but I had the idea for this one, and wanted to get it posted for some challenges, so I'm a bit early this week.

The image is from Stamping Dragon Designs, and is colored with Promarkers. This is a new release and I absolutely loved it when I seen it! This image is so angelic and elegant. It reminds me of natural beauty, summer and innocence. You can get this beauty (or any of their other great images at their store, here. (Stamping With The Dragon also has a challenge going on, on their challenge blog. Check it out and play along! You could win some cute digi images of your choice, from our sponsor!)

I decided to go with soft summery colors for this card. The layout is from sketch TMS#5 at Tuesday Morning Sketches. All background papers and ribbon are from my stash. I cut around the image, and cut the matting for the image, using Spellbinders Nestablities. The flowers are by Prima, and I used pearls for the centers. The sentiment is from the Teeny Tiny Wishes set, by stamping up, and is punched with the SU word window punch, then matted on cardstock punched with the Modern Label Punch by SU.
