I immediately thought of PearlEx which I haven't used in years. I am sure the sparkle will not show up, but the dragonfly has gold, purple and blue PearlEx on it and then I took gold and brushed the circle with it. Really, I did! IRL, it looks pretty. The other thing that impressed me was that I needed a sympathy card and wondered if I could pull that off with a dragonfly. Well, to me, any solitary thing with a heart symbolizes the freedom of a human heart returning home. I hope you will agree.
The cardstock and ribbon really are pink, but are showing red (that's for you, Anne!!!)

I love the Pearl Ex on your dragonfly. When I first saw the dragonfly, it almost looked like seed pearls. This will definitely work for a sympathy card!

I agree with you, Vicky! Beautiful card with a lovely image, and I'm sure the sparkles look wonderful IRL! I like those pearls and ribbon, they show that you care~
