Cynthia's challenge this week at Rainbow Lady's Challenge blog is 'Take a fantasy trip with me' with the extra of attaching a tag to your project. I've used Elusive images stamps with a resist technique and my favourite hydrangea big & juicy ink pad to create my fantasy land background. The tag is from Creative acrylics and is stamped with a Crafters Companion Sentiment.
The main image is a Sweet Pea stamp, the ovals are cut on my cricut and the fairy is coloured with promarkers on a chalked background. I used a scrap of fantasy film for her wings. The layout is based on this weeks gorgeous sketch from 'Sweet Pea Stampers'. I've also used a punched border, some punched flowers and butterflies (decorated with some liquid pearls) for this months challenge from Sir Stampalot which is 'Punch it'. This was a tricky one for me as I haven't got many punches at all but I do like this little butterfly punch from Anna Griffin.
I'm also entering this card for the following challenges:
Donna's Den: a new challenge which this week is 'Happy Birthday'
Stamp Something: Happy Somethings
and a new challenge from UK Cricuteers called 'Pink Thursday' where the challenge is 'Pink Summer.
Thanks for looking, hope you are having some sunshine. Its a gorgeous day here, shame I've got to work though
