MrsNemo APR08VSNA

Photo Details

Poster: MrsNemo

The runway model's dress made me think of butterflies but none of my butterfly stamps fit right so I changed it up to a dragon fly instead. This is my very first card done during VSN. Thanks for the challenge.

That sponging must have taken some time, but what a great result! Nice card and thanks for playing in the challenge!

Actually, it didn't take long at all. I used my Decorative Edge ruler as a straight edge and just popped from color to color. Building the bugs took up most of the time, which is why it ended up so simple.
