Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
The background was done with Pacific Point re-inker on acetate, spritzed with water
and pressed down. A little different technique for a loose watercolor look.
After stamping I went over some spots with a Quickie Glue Pen and dropped
some fine Sweet Poppy Glitter over it!
A little random stamping of printing adds a little extra dimension to the background.

I'm always so pleased to see any winged thing on your cards, Bonnie! That bit of print really adds something special!
Good advice, my friend!

Love this, Bonnie! The large dragonfly only needed that wonderful loose inking to give it presence and the splatters and script gives it a wonderful mixed media look.
This is just lovely and a technique I've got on my list to try. Thanks so much for showing this and how beautiful it turned out.
This is SOOOOO pretty Bonnie!! I'm loving all the loose water colored cards I've been seeing and wish I could get my act together and get out of this slump...hopefully soon!! Anyway, your card is absolutely beautiful...love it!! Hugs. :0)
Its fabulous how a bit of black as in your framing makes all the loveliness stand right out.
Beautiful.
Beautiful card Bonnie! LOVE your gorgeous butterfly. And what a great way to do loose watercolouring. Love the added glitter ... I'll have to get some next time I'm shopping at Sweet Poppy! :) xx

Such a beautiful sparkly dragonfly Bonnie and I love the watercolour background in that pretty blue with the very apt sentient, and a bit of soft script and splattering which goes brilliantly. x
Beautiful Bonnie, love the simplicity of the loose watercolouring and the delicate script in the background ♥
What a great look Bonnie! Love the acetate watercolour impression (another technique for me to try!!) and a fabulous photo too showing the subtle glittering. Vicky x

This is really grand, Bon! Great loose watercoloring technique and schparkle, especially for someone like me who loves dragonflies! Thank you for playing in Kraft Chicks! Hugs, Dolly
This might be "loose" but it's beautiful, Bonnie! Love the bold color and your pretty image. The light stamping also adds pretty interest

Another fine example of loose watercolouring, wish I could see the sparkle from the glitter. Love the sentiment too xx
The dragonfly looks awesome on the blue watercolored background, Bonnie! The faint stamping of printing and the pretty sparkle of glitter here and there are wonderful finishing touches!
