Holly Fairy

I am so proud of myself for actually using some of this gorgeous snowflake ribbon I found at Priceless Scrapbooks. It is from May Arts. I only bought a yard, but I think I'm going to get some more when I go in this weekend. The image on this card is a digital image from one of my favorite digital image artists, Mo Manning. The snow globe the fairy is holding has some glitter added to it and then I added some Crystal Effects to make it look like glass. Of course, I added glitter to everything else in sight, too. Love that about making Christmas cards....glitter always works!! Colored my image with Copic markers. I'm starting to acquire more colors and it is a little easier to get some shading on my images, though I still have a long way to go before I could compare to some of the other wonderful artists in the blog world.

Stamps: Digital image by Mo Manning

Paper: GP white, Lovely Lilac, Wild Wasabi

Accessories: Computer, printer, Copic markers, glitter, Crystal Effects, brads, May Arts snowflake ribbon and green apple ribbon, border punch by Martha Stewart, embossing folder for background texture.

Pink Snow Fairy

Happy Friday! I'm hoping to get my Christmas tree up today. I was going to go to the Friday night crop down at Priceless Scrapbooks, but I have a bit of a scratchy throat and have been feeling a little achy the past couple of days. I think it's best I just keep myself close to the house and not share with anyone!

I made this card using a digi image from Pink Cat Studio. The glittery paper in the background was purchased with this stamp in mind. I knew I wanted to make a glittery pink fairy card. The glitter doesn't show up very well in the photo. Had a hard time getting a picture that didn't blind you because of all the glitter and being able to see the glitter at all. Added some blings around and popped up the whole image layer on dimensionals. I love how this card turned out and want to try some more in some different colors.
