Flower Fairy

Morning Crafters,

I am back again with another card using one of the most gorgeous, cutest Whimsy Flower Fairies, these images are just the cutest.  I have also tried out Mariska's paper piecing tutorial, something I have wanted to do for ages.  A word of advice though, I think it would of gone a lot better had I had the correct tools, i.e. the scissors and the correct glue.  I have just used ordinary glue and you don't get quite as much dimension.  The tiny elements on this stamp were rather fiddly but I do love the result.



The little paper bag that is holding the tag was white.  I used my copic airbrush system and BV000 to colour the bag lilac, something I'd be doing more of as I love everything to match.


The Design papers are from Magnolia called Hydrangea.  The flowers are from the Ribbon Girl and BunnyZoe. The gorgeous Emily lace, seam binding and twine  is also from The Ribbon Girl.



The beautiful butterfly is by Magnolia called "Butterfly Kit.  It comes with two different size butterflies and also the butterfly text which I have used just underneath the butterfly here and also can be seen on the left hand side. I have also used a 6x6 brick stencil and snow text to create the brickwall effect and positioned the butterfly onto.

Copic Marker Ingredients:-
Skin E00, E000, E0000, E11
Hair E43, E31, E29, E50
Lilac BV11, BV01, BV000
Cream E44, E42, E40
