Fairy Card in lilac and turquoise.

Another Fairy card.  This is one I made at  Easter  but forgot to post it.  I  actually made two of these but the other one was given to a friend for  her birthday.

 At 8x8 inches  this is a large card. I sponged the sky and background scene using stampin' up inks. then stamped the foliage and fairy over the top using Versafine black ink. A white gel pen was used to add the night stars.

The stamps I used are a mix of companies, Pocket silhouettes by Stampin up!

The fairy and wild flower stamp are by Lavinia stamps  and the tiny  pine trees are by Inkilicous.

Snow Scene Cards.

 I bought some stamps from a craft show last year and finally got round to use them just before Christmas.

As you can see,  I experimented with colours.
Blue , pink and lilac.

I have to say the pink one is not as vibrant as it appears here.

 The following cards were inked using  lilac ink after I had stamped the images using Memento Tuxedo Black

After the inks were dry I used a white gel pen to add some snow flakes.

The mirrored snow flake  I purchased from  Hobbycraft 10 for £1.
I don't usually  add embellishment  to  my Christmas cards, as most of the people I send cards to thrown them away, so I try to keep the costs down,  but these  snowflakes were so cheap  and they added a little more interest, so why not.
