Dancin' Birthday Dragon

The Color Throwdown people have given us another gorgeous combo to play with, nice and bright and cheerful. 

Rather than a birdie, I went for another creature that flies - and dances!

I've done some ink blending on the dragon, stencilled clouds behind and stamped on my background piece. In case you're not familiar with this die, the head and body are attached separately and the body swings from side to side in a dance. I did take a short video to show you but Blogger is being uncooperative. It worked on my instagram, so click here and scroll to the second image.

Materials used:

• stamps - You Matter background stamp (Simon Says Stamp)
• card - basic white, lemon lime twist (Stampin' Up)
• dies - Dancin' Birthday Dragon, Essential Arches (both Spellbinders)
• distress inks - kitsch flamingo, picked raspberry, squeezed lemonade, mustard seed, spun sugar
• other - cloud stencil (My Favorite Things), blending brushes, lemon lime twist and crushed curry markers (SU), mounting foam tape, craft foam, MISTI, Big Shot, Wordies sentiment sheets - Everyday (Creative Expressions) 

Thanks for calling in. Have a dancin' day!

Cheers
