Hello All!
I hope you're having a wonderful weekend!
A bit rainy here but could be worse so not complaining!
I've gotten hooked on the new 'magical/mystical' craze
so I think I'll have to put another category in my card boxes for upcoming shows! LOL
Here's a fun card a created to share with you today . . .
I created the background by first die
cutting a circle from masking medium to use for the moon. After
applying it to my watercolor paper panel, I then used Tim Holtz Wilted
Violet & Salty Ocean Distress Oxide inks for my colors.
Now the fun of creating my scene!
The stamps used on the front are:
Repeat Impressions Flower Border
Marianne Design Silhouette Fairies & Butterflies
Joanna Sheen Fairy Stamps
Stampscapes Leafy Branch
Inside |
Stamps used on the inside are:
Inkadinkado Beautiful Fairies
Simon Says Stamps (sentiment)
Upon completion, I added drops of white glue and glitter to the
magical wishes at the end of her wand.
Challenges I'd like to share in are:
Crafty Friends Challenge #112 - Fairies & Fantasy
My Time to Craft Challenge #399 - Watercolor
Daring Cardmakers Challenge - Come Fly with Me
Stamplorations June Challenge - Stamps & Birthdays
Well that does it for me today!
We have a birthday party to attend this evening so I'd better get my work done
so I can go and have fun!!
Hope you have a very enjoyable day!
As always, thanks SO MUCH for taking the time to stop by!
