I so love this set. I am happy I finally got a chance to play with it. Dragonfly Garden was the top seller when the new January to June mini catalog went live. I had had it since November last year. I did play with it a little, but then we got into the winter Christmas rush, and I put it aside.
I am hoping for some warmer weather soon. Here in NC, we were teased a little bit yesterday with temps in the 60’s. It was so nice… I worked in the Crafty Cottage with the door opened while playing with this fantastic suite of products.
I got the idea for today’s card from a demonstrator in Australia. You can check out her card here. This set brings hope of warmer weather may be on the way. The funny thing is today; it is cloudy and not above 50 degrees. So hope is all I have for warmer days right now.
