The dragonfly from the Nature's Nest stamp set became the focal point of my card. It was stamped in Old Olive ink and accented with some Champagne mist to provide a touch of glimmer to the wings and body.
I used the grass from Inspired by Nature to provide some background for the card base. It was stamped with VersaMark ink.
Above is a close-up of the dragonfly and the glimmer brad. The card was also sponged with Old Olive ink. and a bit of Always Artichoke ink, and some dots were stamped with the Itty Bitty Backgrounds stamp set (retired).
I am pleased with the way card turned out, especially since this color challenge combo was not one I would have selected by myself!

Very pretty, Diane. Like the touches of shine with the nature theme.
Your card is really pretty! I love how you put these colors together! And the glimmer brad adds that perfect touch! Thanks for sharing your card for the Create with Connie and Mary challenge this week!
Hi Diane...the link on Create with Connie and Mary doesn't work to your card (takes me to Blogger sign-in), but I tracked you down! Your card really works with the colors! Thanks for playing along with us this week!
