Make A Wish Dragon for Outlawz Festive Friday

 Happy FriYay, Folks! Hope no one got pinched on St. Paddy's Day and your weekend is lined up for a lil fun. 
Today begins a new challenge at Outlawz Festive Fridays Challenge. Our sponsor is Lee Holland Art, who generously provided us with images. I used the digital image Dragon with Butterflies on my design team make I am sharing today.
Our themes for the current challenge. I have all of them covered except Christmas. 😊
 
For my layout design, I chose this Splitcoaststampers sketch SC254. I followed it pretty faithfully, but made one addition: the big pink-bradded yellow Prima Sprite paper flower. Just because. 😊
 
At left is the embossing folder I used on the yellow mat layer. Love this folder, first time to use. At right are the Tombow watercolor markers I picked out to use, matching the DCWV Florals Stack patterned paper and DCWV Collage Art Stack card stock. I used Spellbinders Classic Squares and Lacey Squares dies.
 
At left, I stamped Clear Dollar and Woodware sentiments with MFT inside the card. At right, the back of the card where I used some of the yummy Collage Art card stock and scraps with a stamped  Impression Obsession siggie on die cut scraps I found in the collection.
Close-up time! I colored the focal image with the Tombows, then stenciled the sky (TH Bubble) and the grass (Funky Fossil) with various dye inks. I added faux paint splatters with my white gel pen. I added Cotton Candy Stickles to the flower centers and all around the image's edge. I added gold metallic accents to the butterflies. I stamped the Lawn Fawn sentiment using Versafine Onyx ink.
And a final view. Let's see, I dry-embossed, stamped, colored, die cut and stenciled on this card. I do like how it turned out (many times I really have no clue 😁). This image approaches the edge of my comfort zone as I've never been into dragons but I got through it ok. It's a very cute little dragon. 😉 I can probably give this card to one of my nieces. 

Thanks for visiting me today! XOX

    Blogger is becoming a real pain with not showing photos lately, I can see a couple of the smaller ones but that's it. Thought it was just me but apparently not and same on lots of blogs.

    But I can see nice fresh yellows and flowers and can still say thanks so much for joining in at We Love Stamping Spring challenge.

    This pretty card is so adorable. The colors are so cheerful. I can't resist cuteness either. Your dragon is indeed cute.

    You certainly used many techniques which gives this card a punch.
