Dragon's Treasure

A friend of ours in the U.S. had asked if I could make something special for his little girl for Valentine's Day.  Not long ago, she was in to fairies, and then it was mermaids.  Well, now it is dragons.  I had purchased this fantastic baby dragon digital image by A Day for Daisies and I hadn't used it yet.  It was the first thing that popped in to my head!


It's quite rare that I create specifically for girls.  I have only nephews myself!  I had a rough time matching enough pinks together.  I used a Sakura gel sparkle pen on the wings and the dragon's spots.


I used some sprinkles from Annabelle Stamps and seam binding from Stampin' Up!.  I also used my fiskars border punch and Stampin' Up! nesting frames.  Oh yes, I pulled out a lot of tools for this card!


I coloured the dragon with my Copic markers.  Again, I don't have a whole array of pink.  I made another one in blue and it looks much more blended.  One day, if it ever makes it to a card, you might even get to see it!

And here is the recipient of this card.  Isn't she darling?
