Good morning to all of you:)
It is freezing outside, and it feels like winter is near, but the card I want to show you today is filled with sweetness and summer. I have used the gorgeous image “Charlotte” from Sugar Nellie’s brand new range of stamps “Fairy Glen”.
I have colored this lovely fairy with Copics, and the violet and grey colors I have used for her clothes, wings and shoes are: V91 – V93 – V95 – V99, and C00 – C1 – C3 – C5. All the papers I have used are from Pion Designs collection “Sagan om våren”, and the lovely border punch is from EK Success. My flowers are a mix of dies from Marianne Design and Magnolia, and I have added some roses, and some tiny buttons in matching colors. The green swirl is a dies from Cherry Lynn.
I have added some glitter to sweet “Charlotte” to make her sparkle a little.
Charlotte, and all her “Fairy Glen” friends you can buy at Funky Kits.
It is great to get a little taste of summer these days, right? But these sweet “Fairy Glen” images look gorgeous on all kinds of cards. Christmas cards you say? No problem. I have a little extra for you today. This cute “Fairy Glen” image “Delia” is not a Christmas stamp…but today she is:)
For this card I have used papers from Maja Design, beautiful laces, some Christmas ribbon, a button, and pines made from a MS punch.
Last thing today is a coloring tip. Many people ask me what Copics I use to get this deep Christmas red. The funny thing is that I don`t use red at all. Here is my “red” combination: E09 – E19 – T6.
Why don`t you give it a try?
I hope you all get a wonderful weekend.
Hugs, Marianne:)
