Dancing Fairy!!!

When I look at this sweet image from The Stamping Boutique all I could see is a Dancing Fairy, twirling around on the branch of the tree! How nice that would be. To have no cares in the world and be like a child and just dance the day away!!!  This week The Stamping Boutique is sponsoring the challenge at Practical Scrappers.  The theme was to use something that has been in your stash for over a year.  Well I can tell you the only thing new other than the stamp is the three little pearls that I put on this card.  I could go on that show the horders when it comes to craft stuff.  Some of my papers are 5 years old and the lace I have on this card I have had for at least 7 years!!! So I think my KREATION fit the bill.

I did some layering on her skirt. This has become one of my favorite techniques of late. It just adds that extra something.  The little flower on the right was made by slip stitching some ribbon together until you get the desired look.  I have been making these out of my scrap ribbon and I like the punch it gives my card.


The copics I have used are as follows:
Skin: E00, E02 and pink chalk on her cheeks
Her dress: B0000, B00, B12, B24 blues
E93, E95 and YR04 peaches
Tree trunk: E11, E13, E25
Leaves: G21, G17
Stickles: Cotton Candy, Eucalyptus and Baby Blue
Crystal Effects- Stampin' Up
Pearls - Recollections
DP and cardstock from my stash

Challenges:
Saturday Spotlight use your birthstone - June

If I have inspired you to KREATE please become my folower.
