I have never entered this challenge before but when I saw the topic was "Birthstones", I knew I had to have a go! The birthstones I have chosen are mine - Aquamarines - for a March birthday.
The dragonfly image (Joanna Sheen) is embossed in silver and embellished with varying sizes of gems. I have sponged several shades of blue around the image and mounted this onto a piece of toning watercolour paper spritzed with glimmer mists.
The backing paper is by Artylicious and the sentiment from Stampin Up.
I thoroughly enjoyed making this card and am very pleased with the result! Thank you for visiting and do please leave a comment.
This is just stunning Janet, we share the same birthstone.xxx
