Duo of Dragonflies' Digitalis Delight Alphatag

I was beginning to despair over a devilishly difficult "D" Alphatag for the Baroque Guild Swap. My dandelion doily was too distressed & dull so I abandoned that & after deciding that the diamante Damask was resembling a disaster I tried decorated diamonds which most certainly didn't fall into a decorative category. I'd abandoned some delightful digitalis (foxgloves) which were also proving dull but as I was  rapidly running out of time since I need to post the tags to arrive by the 23rd I tried adding some dragonflies & decided that would work. Deliberating over my title I realised that I had a duo of dragonflies - finally my "D" Alphatag was done & dusted.
