Moonrose Fairy

Moonrose Fairy is another gorgeous digi from Michelle Perkett and I've made this card for this weeks challenge at the Michelle Perkett Studio Challenge Blog where the challenge is either use your favourite image or follow the sketch. Its so hard to choose a favourite so I've used the sketch :

I've coloured the fairy with promarkers and added lots of sparkly highlights with a sakura clear stardust pen. The black backgrounds are make by stamping grasses on the lower panel and stars on the top panel and embossing with silver EP. I've also added some flowers and stars stamped in versamark and brushed with mica powder but they don't show up too well on the pic. The purple oval is made using the 'Caught in Crystal Technique' which is one of my favourites as it is sooooooo messy. The acetate is painted with radiant rain daubers, sprayed with glimmer mist and firework ink. I've added silver stars, silver microbeads and glitter before adding the floor polish and tissue paper to hold it all together. I love the finished effect but it doesn't like its picture taken lol. The sentiment and moon are from the same digital image.

This card is also for the following challenges:
