Happy Baby Fairies

I had a lovely time playing with some fairies this week :)

These two cuties are from the Mo's Digital Pencil set 6 Baby Fairies (girls). 

I thought they would love to fly amongst some rainbow clouds so after colouring them with Copics I made a special night sky for them :)

To create the cloud panel I used Distress Oxide inks and made a blend with Raspberry, Violet, Peacock and Mermaid.

I then used an MFT Cloud stencil and black Distress ink to create the clouds.

I used a star stencil from CC Designs with texture paste for the stars.

I cut a number of the Whimsy Stamps Happy die from black card and glued on top of each other and then added a white one slightly to the side. This gave the word more impact because of the height and the black outline.  The sentiment is from a Whimsy set called Bunny Balloons. 

I added glitter gel pen to the flourishes on the fairies wings and also some Wink of Stella so the wings are a little glittery although it's hard to tell in the photo unfortunately.

Copics used :

YG 01, 03

B 0000, 00, 02, 04

RV 00, 02, 25

R 22, 30

E 000, 00, 13, 41, 42, 43, 50

Bunny Balloons

I am very happy to be a Guest Designer for Whimsy Stamps again this month :)

There are so many adorable designs in their store that it's truly hard to decide which one to choose!
The little bunnies in this set called Bunny Balloons were just too sweet to leave in the shop though and I just had to have them :)

I decided to use this bunny but there are 3 different ones in the set.
I coloured him with copics and cut him out.
I then stamped the balloons again onto some patterned paper and cut them out.
I used black soot distress ink around the left side and glued them to the first balloon outline that I stamped.

The sentiment is also from the Bunny Balloons set.
I simply stamped it in black, cut around them by hand and added some black soot distress ink to them too.

To create the background I applied Tumbled Glass, Shaded Lilac and Faded Jeans Distress Inks to white card.
Then I used the Sun Rays Stencil and white craft ink with a touch of purple paint added to it.
Once it dried I added some water drops.

I backed this piece onto some black card and adhered it to a kraft card base.
I did a little doodling with a fine black marker along the edges and attached bunny and balloons with foam adhesive to give him some added dimension.
I glued the sentiment on and drew around bottom edges with a charcoal pencil and blended it a little with my finger.

I like the way the bunny looks like he's getting carried away and off the top of the card :)

What a wonderful set of stamps this is!
I actually chose it because I thought I would make a nice baby card with it but then ended up with something entirely different.
There are just so many possibilities that my imagination is racing :)

Copics used :

W 00, 1, 3, 5, 7

R 30
