Fairy Card

Here is a fairy card that I worked on today.


Fairy Card
Supplies Used
Stamps: Elemental Doodles
Cardstock: TAC (textured brown, Cream), SU (light blue)
Printed Paper: Making Memories
Ribbon: Miscellaneous
Coloring Medium: Twinkling H2O
Inks: TAC Palette Burnt Umber
Embossing Powder: Transcendence
Miscellaneous: Double Stick Tape, Foam Dots, Cuttlebug, Cuttlebug Embossing Folder, Gold Embellishment from Making Memories.

Instructions:
This is really a very simple card to make.
  1. Cut and fold light blue CS to regular card size.
  2. Emboss front of light blue CS.
  3. Cut chocolate brown textured CS to the desired size .
  4. Cut the printed paper to just smaller than the brown CS.
  5. Cut cream CS just a tad smaller than the printed paper.
  6. Stamp fairy image in Burnt Umber ink and emboss.
  7. Color fairy using Twinks.
  8. Add a touch of glitter for embellishment.
  9. Using finger dauber (or other pouncing tool) add burnt umber ink to the edges of the cream CS.
  10. Add gold embellishment from Making Memories.
  11. wrap and tie ribbon around center of card (where card opens up instead of out). I add a little adhesive to the back of the ribbon so it will stick to the card better without moving.
  12. Add layers to front of card. Use 3D foam dots to mount the top layer with the fairy.
