Fairies

Another big gap since my last post, sorry!  My daughter's wedding went really well - thank you for all your good wishes.  I will post a picture when I have sorted one out - mine didn't come out too well so need to get hold of some better ones.

Anyway, here is a fairy card I made using Sheena Douglass's Silhouette Grasses and Hidden Fairies stamp sets.


The background is various Distress Inks, I cannot remember which ones, sorry! I then sprayed with water, dried and sprayed with Pearl Glimmer Mist. The stamping is black Versafine embossed with clear powder and I have added Glamour Dust for sparkle.  I love using silhouette stamps and Sheena's are fabulous.  There are more sets I neeeeed! Thank you for looking and take care.  Christine xx

Hi Chris, it does seem ages since you have been away but what better reason than a wedding! Look forward to seeing the photos. Your card is gorgeous, I don't do much in silhouette but after seeing your beautiful card I may just have to try again. Crafty hugs, Anne x

Hi Chris,

Very nice card! I like how you combined the colors in the background.

Yes, the adoption fair was very fun. When I got home my little dog, Katie, had a good sniff!!!

Hugs,
Kay

So pleased the wedding went well Chris would love to see pictures! Your card is just so pretty, love the effect you have achieved with the DIs and those silhouette stamps are so pretty. I have some and have only used them once but I do love them, just no time to play! x
