Ive used my minds eye paper,tilda image is coloured with my distress inks and ive punched some flowers out and added brads and gems in the centres,dragonfly brads,gems,pearls and lace are all from my stash,hope you like what ive done as im actually pleased with what ive done and will have to try it again

thanks for looking and make sure and check out what the DT members came up with as they are all fantastic, and such a talented bunch
