Ohh!! I Do Love a Dragon fly By Dee

Hi Everyone I hope you are all well I have the beautiful Dragon fly
from the Butterflies #2 size A5 plate.
I started out with a cream tag that has some crackle paint on it in places.
Next I used the Calligraphic Mat 12 
 I swiped it through mat sealer and stamped onto the tag.
I then spritzed the distress paint with water then swiped the tag
 through the paint. Knock back the area's that had the script stamp 
stamped on it.
Next I took a square beer mat and cut the Tag up and assembled it to 
fit.
Crackle paste was put round the edges of the mat then antiquing cream
in black and patina were applied once paste was dried.
Iridescent turquoise paint was.
For the dragon fly I used pewter embossing powder and ultra thick embossing
powder followed by silver.
I stamped the dragon fly twice into the hot embossing powder.
I cut it out and then trimmed the top one back.
I threaded the beads with wire to make the main body and the antennae.
The base was coloured with the alcohol ink.

Well that's it for today I hope you all enjoyed my post
