Snapdragons & Rainbows

Oooh it's starting to get chilly in the mornings now.  Nice having the kids back at school to give more time for crafting though (well, one of them at least!!).  Colder days calls for some warm and bright colouring.  This time I have used Aurora Wings 'Snapdragon Sprite'. Isn't he just darling?  I'm a sucker for anything with dragons!

  1. Oh my goodness, Nicola! What a beauty! Your coloring of Snapdragon Sprite is amazing and just POPS with the fabulous dark background. I don't think I've ever seen this style of easel card and now I'm dying to try it. Truly stunning! Love the little rainbow pearls up the side, too. Thanks so much for joining out Anything Goes challenge at Aurora Wings. xxD
