Lady bug and dragonflies

Image- Just Sitting Here by Your Next Stamp - Cheery Lynn dragonflies added - one of them is positioned due to an embellishment opportunity aka boo boo! Coloring is with markers.   The sentiment is by Verve - inside it continues .. a very happy birthday.  The base is a brick embossed piece (Tim Holtz/Sizzix) which I sponged with purple and sepia ink - trying to achieve a bit of the Tim Holtz look.  The strip is woodgrain, also Tim Holtz.  Mats are Kraft cs, and the purple strip is Washi tape.
