Monochromatic Monday: Sympathy Detailed Dragonfly Thinlits

I'm a huge fan of the white on white monocrhomatic look. The new Detailed Dragonfly Thinlits looks so pretty in white.  The dragonfly is so delicate and pretty that you don't need much to make a beautiful card.  Perfect for a sympathy card for a special friend.
