Fairy Wishes

Few weeks since I last posted.  Our weather is getting better don't mind going outside the last few days.  Hubby managed to fracture two vertebrae in his back a few weeks ago and was in great pain for a couple of weeks, but with medication it is not so bad now, and he has managed to go to Wellness House today.  He usually goes once a week, but had a few weeks off.  Anyway while this was going on I seemed to have lost my mojo.  I did take time most days to stop by quite a few blogs to make comments - I always see such great awesome work from fellow card makers.

Finally got busy and made a card for my sister.  The image is from Fitztown, and I think she is lovely!  I have coloured the background with copics and have paper pieced her dress and wings.  Have added micro sized gold beads to the centres of the yellow flowers and Rock Candy Stickles and glamour dust to her wings.  For embellishments I simply added a velvet ribbon and a small butterfly from my stash. Sentiment computer generated.

I should mention that the large flowers were coloured with pink copics before I decided to paper piece them, they were just too pink and I decided to cover them.  And then it was a toss up a purple dress that I had cut out or the pink one that I ended up with.    Such big decisions!

I did a blog hop at Sassy Studio Designs last weekend and at the end of the hop we got a free digital Sentiment image from the new sentiments by Greg (you should check out the rest of them.)   It was fun as there were all kinds of new sentiments along the way.  Always nice to be able to put a new one on the front of your card!

This image is from Sassy Studio Designs that I won in another hop.  I do love their images!  I coloured her with Copics  and gold pen for her belt and necklace.  Used the sentiment and added an apple from my button collection.  The stars are also from my button jar, I added some thread to them.  The vellum with the gold leaves and the cardstock are all from my stash.

Seems like forever since I have posted, too many appointments and commitments other than card making.
But I am here to-day and it looks like another busy week ahead.  The weather is looking better, not so much snow on the ground now, but you still have to watch out for the ice.

This wonderful image is from Unky at The East Wind.  It was fun to colour with my copics.  I used a Spellbinders die cut to frame her.  An Anna Griffin Cuttlebug folder to emboss the blue background.  The Poppies are a die cut from Memory Box.  The cardstock from Micheals.  The ribbon, pearls and sentiment are from my stash.

This is a close up of just the image.
