Fairy Sweet


Good morning, a quick reminder of our August Challenge at We Love Stamping, 
the theme is Summer Blooms or Anything Goes.

I made a fairly (or should I say 'fairy') CAS card using a Penny Black stamp from a set called Fairy Sweet, a set I've had for years and only inked up one of the stamps before. I stamped the little fairy onto a scrap of white card, coloured with Copic markers and added loads of glitter to her wings. the frame is several die cuts stacked together. The border panel is an old TH die (one of those big fat ones that don't need a platform) . I marked the position on the card panel and stamped the tiny flowers (from a Polkadoodles set), coloured them and then stuck the die cut in place. Sentiment is a LOTV stamp. 

There's loads of fabulous inspiration from the rest of the DT over at WLS, where you will also find full details of the lovely prizes from Buddly Crafts and instructions for how to play along.

Thanks for visiting

Have a good week- hopefully with some rain (in this part of the world anyway)

This is so cute! I love the crisp feel of your design. I've got the TH die and you have inspired me to dust it off (actually not sure I've ever used it). Thanks so much for sharing with us this fortnight at As You Like It Challenge! Hope to see you back again soon.
