Fairies Challenge


This is my card for Rainbowlady's challenge this week of fairies. It gave me a reason to use this stamp from Joanna Sheen which I've had for some time but hadn't used yet. It's coloured with a mixture of Sakura Stardust and Gold/Silver Shadow pens. I only had a charcoal grey frame that fitted the image so I coloured it with a mixture of Souffle pen and Brilliance ink pad then gave it a quick coat of extra thick embossing powder. It was a smooth card but now it's textured. It's mounted on rainbow paper and edged with sticky ribbon from C & C.
Thanks for looking.

What a super card Beryl. I have not seen that image before must have missed it. Love the 'rainbow' paper too.
Thanks for joining in again.

This is absolutely gorgeous. I love the textured paper you have made and that stamp is fab. Lovely. I wish I could stamp and colour. I am trying to learn to stamp by embossing, but then have to findways of hiding the fact I'm not artistic enough to colour the stamps. Take a look at my blog and you'll see what I mean!!

Needs must and I try to disguise my incompetence. I'd love to be able to colour images. but am a novice cardmaker of about 6 months so I'll approach it softly,softly. Thank you for your encouragement on my blog -it means a lot to me.
Bon dimanche.
