Here is SSW-172:
Here is my card:
My cards base and mats are SU Bashful Blue and the patterned papers are from the Prima Meadow Lark 6x6 pad. My sweet fairy image is from Whoopsi Daisy. Linnie generously shared her as a freebie awhile back. I printed her on Canson Watercolor Paper and colored her with Distress Inks (Antique Linen, Tattered Rose, Scattered Straw, Salty Ocean, Worn Lipstick and a little Milled Lavender). I added Star Dust Stickles to her wings and boots, Diamond Stickles to the butterflies and Fruit Punch Stickles to her bodice. The sentiment is from Guylou's Inimitability. It is a free sentiment when you purchase Starla in the GI store here. Some satin ribbon and a few Wild Orchid Crafts roses finished my card.
Here is a close-up of the fairy:
Thanks for stopping by again! Enjoy the rest of your day and hope to see you soon!
This is such a soft and pretty card- any girl would love this on her birthday! Loved the TLC sentiment too : )
