Fairy wishes...



Back to my favorites for awhile... Mo Manning and her generous sized Fairy!  Colored with Copics, diamond star added to her wand and diamond glitter in her wings. (See the close-up below.)  I layered with punched lace and die cuts to add to the airiness (Sp?).  Created the sentiment on the computer and backed everything with black matting to make it pop a bit.  The image panel and the flourish have been elevated with the help of foam tape which you can see better at an angle.  Finished with black pearls to "pin" down the panels.

 This card should be eligible for the following
CHALLENGES:
Crafty Ribbons #43 - Pink and Green
Dilly Beans - Pastels
613 Ave C - Anything Goes
One Stitch at a Time #159 - Bright (bright green!)

May you color with abandon, create wildly and always make what amuses you!

    A great big smile on my face seeing Mo's over-sized fairy, very amusing :) The black matting certainly makes you card pop, really did work well. Good luck in this weeks OSAAT challenge and hope to see you back again soon. Hugs Jane OSAAT DT

    Gorgeous card with fabulous colouring :) Mo's images are so much more realistic aren't they. We're not all stick insects.....

    Many thanks for joining in with our 'Bright' challenge over at OSAAT & hope to see you back again soon.
