Today there's a great new challenge starting at Fab 'N' Funky. Our host this week is the lovely and talented Wends and she has picked the theme of 'Magical / Mystical'. Our sponsor for this challenge is the fabulous Julia Spiri who has given the DT some beautiful images to play with, I chose to use April Elf, she's so delicate and pretty! I coloured with copics then matted the image onto aqua coloured card. The green layer is a scrap of handmade paper (beautiful texture) The DP was free with a magazine. The flowers are a HoneyDoo stamp, embossed onto vellum and coloured with inks., leaves are die cut. The bow is made from seam binding and attached with a little dragonfly brad (so old...so many left!!!) sentiment stamp is LOTV.
Thanks for taking the time to visit today, I hope you'll pop over to Fab N Funky to check out the beautiful inspiration makes from the rest of the team...and of course we'd be delighted to see what you make for this challenge too - it is a lovely theme!
Have a good week....hoping for some sunshine!
Chris

Such a pretty card Chris. Love those flowers! x
ReplyDeleteAww Chris, I have utterly fallen in love with your sweet elf! Stunning colouring hun. She's enchanting and I love all the gorgeous details. The embossed vellum flowers are stunning and the wee dragonfly brad is such a cute finish for the fab bow. So beautiful hunny. Hope your sunshine appears soon! We have had endless days of rain here lately and really blustery winds! So I'm rather keen on the idea of a clear Winter day! Hugs, Wends x
