Compendium of Curiosities, Challenge 16

This week Linda Ledbetter has challenged us to make use of the Perfect Pearls Mist technique from Tim Holtz's Compendium of Curiosities Vol 2 (which you really should read if you haven't already!)

This tag came out better than I was expecting almost by accident.  To begin with, I embossed a black tag using a folder that I just liked - there was no plan to it.  Then I used Tim's technique to colour it.  I'd just taken delivery of some Kanban dew drops and wanted to play with them, so I stuck them on - with no idea in my head other than to use my new stuff.  It wasn't until after I'd stamped the dragonflies onto Fantasy Film and stuck them on that I thought, "Hang on, it looks like dragonflies flying over water!"

Of course, if anyone asks, that's what I was aiming for.  You won't tell, will you?
