Sunshine on Fairy Wings

Good morning!  Happy Saturday!  Hope your weekend is off to a great start!  It's a little dreary here, but not raining yet, so I'm off to get all my errands done before it does.  Before I go, I'm popping in to share the card I made for a couple of challenges: the May One Sweet Challenge (May flowers), Crafts and Me Challenge #83 (Punches and Diecuts), CES Challenge #185 (anything goes) and Cheery Lynn Designs Challenge #27 (shades of purple).

Here is my card for the challenges:


I started with a card base of SU Lavender Lace and layered with patterned paper from the Prima Meadowlark 6x6 pad.  My beautiful image is Elisabeth Bell's Twinkle Toes Fleur from Sweet Pea Stamps.  I stamped her on Copic X-Press It with Memento Tuxedo Black and colored her with my Copics.  I added Diamond Stickles to her wings and Yellow Stickles to her waistband and the center of the flower in her hair.  I used two diecuts from Cheery Lynn Designs: the Dutch Scallop Square for the frame and a Fanciful Flourish. The sentiment is from Paulette at Create With TLC.  A few Wild Orchid Crafts Roses finished my card.

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a wonderful weekend and hope to see you again soon!

    Beautiful die to frame your image, Carla. Love the sparkly wings.
    Hubby and I worked in the yard Saturday and we were rushing to get plants out before the rain came. We got through about 15 minutes before it came. So happy!!
