Freshly Made Sketches: Dragonfly Hello

It's time for a new sketch at Freshly Made Sketches! Today we have a sketch by Jen Brum and here’s what I did with it! 

I wasn't sure what I was going to do with this sketch - I had a vague notion of brightly colored rays and a bold sentiment.  Obviously I didn't do that.  I was flipping through my stash and saw this graceful dragonfly and was shocked I hadn't used it.  So I kind of forced him into the sketch but I love the results.  I didn't do straight lines just to better match his soft look. His top wings are a pearlescent vellum which is a lovely look. Then I added some subtle floral paper and used a lattice embossing folder on the white.  Super simple but it's all about the dragonfly and I LOVE it!!

I hope to see you playing along with us this week at Freshly Made Sketches.
