We had to include a colored image and select any three in a row from the following:
I chose the first column - purple, ribbon and bling. Here is my card:
My card base and mats are SU Concord Crush and the patterned paper is from the Fab Scraps Blue Heron collection. My beautiful fairy is Fairy Celandine from Make it Crafty. I was lucky to win this rubber stamp during the Advent countdown this past December. I stamped her on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored her with my Copics. I cut her out with my Cameo and popped her up on foam tape. The sentiment is from Create With TLC. Paulette generously shared it as a freebie a couple of days ago. I dyed some seam binding with Popsicle (purple) Glimmer Mist and made a triple-loop bow. The ornate corner was cut with my Cameo using a Curvy Corner Element from SVG Cuts. A few iridescent purple gems finished my card.
Here is a close-up of the image:
Thanks for stopping by! I'll be by to visit your blogs as soon as I get home this afternoon.
