I have a card to share today using some new goodies I was lucky enough to receive for Christmas.
I had a lovely time playing with a new stencil from TCW called Fantasy Tile, my new Distress Oxides and a gorgeous Lavinia stamp called Fairytale.
I used Raspberry, Pumpkin, Lemonade, Citron and Mermaid Lagoon Distress Oxides through the stencil in a kind of rainbow pattern on white paper. But it looked a bit "much" to me :) So I decided to lightly go over it with Speckled Egg Distress Oxide and then I loved it. :)
I stamped the beautiful fairy stamp over the top and used the Bold ABC die from Whimsy Stamps for the word Big and "wish" was made with some rub on letters onto white card.
The urge to colour or glitter her wings was very strong but I resisted the temptation because I loved the look of the plain black silhouette against the stencilled background.
I'd like to enter my card in the following challenges :

ReplyDeleteAdorable card, love how you used the stencil as background for the lovely fairy (I own her too, love this stamp so much!)and the idea to tone down with speckled eggs has been brilliant. The BIG word on the bottom of the fairy is another brilliant detail and well done for don't add sparkling, the wings are just perfect as they are!
