Better late than never, eh? This should have been done and posted this morning, but time being what it is, ran away with me… A bright and breezy card for you today, created for this week’s Copic Colour Challenge. I hope you’ll join us this week. There’s a fab prize from The Craft Barn, and also, if you check the blog, we are having a Guest DT Call!
Without further ado, my card!
Isn’t she the sweetest? I adore the Swiss Pixies stamps, they are super cute, and a joy to colour. They are perfect for cutting out and layering up too, and are great for all sorts of occasions, including Christmas!
Gretel has been coloured using Copic Markers (list at the end), and I have covered her wings in Shimmerz – Blingz – Pixie Dust. I also used my Copics to airbrush the sentiment (masked with the Nestabilities used to cut it out).
The papers are from the DCWV Blossoms & Butterflies 6×6 Stack. I’ve also used some gorgeous Floral Felt Ribbon in blue, and popped some Stampin Up Felt Fusion flowers on top, secured with pearl brads from my stash. The sentiment is another C.C. Designs stamp, and comes in the Amy R. Underwater Sentiments set which includes lots of fab sentiments, some of which work for more than just underwater themed projects.
That’s all for today! Time to finish the dreaded housework, and then on to some colouring in!
