Alpha/Dictionary Challenge - J + Dragonfly


I get hardly any spare time to craft these days but do make sure I keep up with this fortnightly challenge on The Craft Barn.  This time our letter to work with is J and we have to incorporate a dragonfly on our work too.  I cheated slightly with this one as time is of the essence!  I found some pretty Crafty Individuals bp that has dragonflies printed on it and chose to use the word Jovial as I remembered I had this cute little girl stamp who does indeed look very jovial in my opinion!  Plus it gave me a chance to use it again!  I embellished with a few pretty dragonflies as I am desperately trying to use up old stash and not buy any new!

She does look very happy. It's tough with the additional requirements, but the dragonflies are perfect here.

You made a perfect page, Lesley. Your choice of words was great and the added dragonflies were fantastic. I am SO glad to read you are using old stash. it makes it even more enjoyable to read, because it means you saved money, yet found a great way to use that wonderful paper.
