This time we could choose any digital stamp from Make It Crafty to work with, and I really fell in love with this one!!! It's called Fairy Dahlia and you can find it here.
I went for a yellow colour scheme... the first time I've ever worked in yellow monochrome!!!
The papers I've used are from: Recollections Signature Charming paper pad and Crate Paper Pretty Party paper pad.
I used Tim Holz Distress Ink pad in Old paper around the edges of the papers, image and paper embellishments.
I used my Promarkers to colour the image:
Raw Sienna, Tan, Satin, Almond, Blush,, Blossom, Cool Grey , Buttercup and Lemon Zest.
I used a few of my clear stamps around the image.
The "Dream" sentiment and the Postmark are clear stamps from Kaisercraft.
The leaves on the side are a border die cut from Sizzix. I've had it for so long and never used it!!! don't ask me why because I like how it looks! and I though it matched the fairy's dress really well.
As an extra layer behind the image I used a piece of cheese cloth. I'm totally addicted to cheese cloth! I really like the "messy" look it gives to the card...
I also used:
Flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts.
Buttons from local shop.
Punched butterflies, which I embossed with a polka dots and floral embossing folders.
Ribbon and lace from Hobbycraft.
Gems from local shop.
