Today sees the release of the stunning Decorative Dragonfly collection from Heartfelt Creations. This is such a pretty collection and the dragonflies are just delightful. Today I am sharing a card with a shaker element that echoes a pond with vibrant sparkly dragonflies hovering over the pond edged with pretty summery flowers.
