Late summer sunshine

Good morning, we are actually enjoying some late summer sunshine in the South of England but the evenings are drawing in and the sun is less high in the sky each day. The sunsets seem deeper and more intense at this time of the year .

I have used this as inspiration for my Monday Design Team make for Visible Image. 

I got out some alcohol ink and yupo and made this background.

I worked with 2 stamp sets; Live in the moment

and Into the woods

I stamped the large and medium dragonflies onto card and added some pink and red Wink of Stella for some sparkle. I cut out just the wings.

I also stamped all the dragonflies onto my card base 

I then added 2 layers of into the woods, one on acetate to add depth to my card. I also added the extra wings.

Some close ups

One last shot

I would like to enter my card into the following challenges.
