Fairies in the woods

Hello,
Happy New Year to you! I hope you had a good festive season.

This is my card for the January 2020 Fairy and Unicorn Challenge, the theme as always is anything goes so long as it's fantasy.


What I used

White 8x8 card blank
Clarity Indian Summer paper for the background
Black glitter card for the mat
Most of the stamps were free with various magazine, except one of the flowers which is an IndigoBlu stamp.
Black Archival Ink for stamping
Tonic Nuvo Charcoal glitter for the stars dotted around the card - doesn't show very well in the photo but is much better in real life

Thanks for looking, if you've time to leave a comment that would be great. Please do join us at the Fairy and Unicorn Challenge this month - anything goes so long as it's fantasy!

Happy Halloween

Hello there,
time for another Fairy and Unicorn Challenge, this month being October I went with the theme of Halloween with witches, spells and ghosts! The challenge theme as always is anything goes so long as it's fantasy.



What I used

White A5 Landscape card
CraftArtist2 with the Spooktacular digikit for backgrounds and embellishing
Oddball Art Book of Spells image for the main topper
Black ribbon bow

I designed the overall card, then split it into 3 layers, printed them separately and layered them up with foam pads to give some dimension.

I made an insert from the middle layer of the card and some of the same embellishments. The verse is from the Craftsuprint website, which has a very good selection of cards you can buy and make, plus verses to use in them.

I hope you like the card, please leave a comment if you've got time. Why not also check out the Fairy and Unicorn Challenge and join us there this month.
