I decided to go with some orange and yellow tones for my card, to create the feeling of warmth.
I sponged Tangelo Twist and Daffodil Delight ink over the Diamond Circles Stencil. Once I was happy with the coverage, I then stamped the sentiment in black ink. The dragonfly die was cut from both Tangelo Twist and black cardstock. I finished off the card with some sequins and called it done!

You've used that stencil beautifully! It's a lovely backdrop to the dragonfly. The style of the sentiment is just perfect for the card.
Love that background! Beautiful card!
Karren, your card is so gorgeous, I just had to CASE it just now! I'll be putting it up on my blog soon...hope you don't mind.

Karren, this is stunning! The stenciled background is spectacular--love the blend of colors. Love the layered dragonfly and the sequins are the perfect amount of sparkle. Fabulous!
Another CAS masterpiece Karren - I love that blended stencilled background, the perfect base for your dragonfly. Love those sequins too - they are almost reflecting the colours of your card. Gorgeous!
I am truly in awe of this creation! What a cool idea! I am guessing you are in Oz then? I didn't know that! I have a daughter who emigrated there 3 1/2 years ago, so I hope to visit there this year. Anyway, truly lovely card!
I really love your gorgeous stenciled background, Karren! I also love the warm tones and the little die cut dragonfly, a sure sign of warm weather!
You are killing me with that dragonfly. I thought I was over the moon about butterflies but now I see that I've been missing the boat by leaving dragonflies out of my stash. (You've clearly been hanging around Cindy Lovell too much) :) I absolutely love everything about this card!
The background is so pretty, just perfect for the dragonfly. What a perfect spring card!
So pretty, Karren! I absolutely love the detail in that stamped background. The dragonfly is the perfect finishing touch! :)
Wow this is just stunning Karren!
Beautiful card, Karren! The stencilled background looks great but the must I like the dragonfly!!
I love that background, so striking
This is beautiful, Karren! I love your bold butterfly against your softly stenciled background!
Karren, your stenciled background is gorgeous! The dramatic dragonfly is stunning! I love it! XX
Beautiful, Karren! I love the warm colors. You have fabulous spritzing skills.
Karren, we had so many dragonflies in our prairie garden last year and your card made me think back to those warm, sunny days! Thank you:-) I have to have this die! Your card is beautifully composed and the sequins are the perfect finishing touch
hugs
