Morning all.....!
It's Vicky here today and I have the great pleasure to showcase a beautiful Home Grown Manga....
Woodland Fairy....
This wee beauty was first released last year and I must say she is one of my favourites.
I have kept her very simple to show you how gorgeous she is...
and as you see I have done some matting and layering to show you
the gorgeous Nitwit papers I have used too. I always matt my papers on
matching card to "lift" the papers and I also "raise" the image onto foam pads....
and the colouring medium I have used on her are Spectrum Noirs, Prisma Pencils for shading and some chalks too....especially for a cheeks...
and finally the the "stuff" I used to to create the bow is Scrim....yep it's plaster scrim
what builders use...! It's so cheap, flexible and you can buy it in any good DIY stores...or what I do I "borrow" from my lovely, and patient hubby Steve...lol.....
Well I hope you likey....and for more details please pop over to my blog here...
and I know for the next month my teamie's will be showcasing
some more of these gorgeous stamps....
have a lovely day.....and I hope the weather is being kind like it has been over the
weekend.......
big hugs Vicky xx

Beautiful card. I love the way she's coloured. Will look out for some scrim. Julia.
Fabulous Vicky!
It's always so nice to see some of the older stamps being used. I know everyone loves to play with their new rubber but I always LOVE to see older images...it was Sugar Nellie that got me addicted to rubber in the first place!
Beautiful card, I love the colours and I love your style.

Happy crafting,

Hi Vicky!! What an adorable card!! I'm just getting ready to make a card w/one of my Mangas...and am so tickled to see this little darlin!! I don't have her...but she's just so dang cute!! I love her wings! And the mushroom is sooooo perfect! Thanks for the great post too, Vicky! I will use it as a guide for my next week's post! You rock!! Hugs. Pat Frank
This is one of my favourite images though I don't have her. She is beatifully showcased her with the flower & scrim as accents & the soft colours of the background papers. I particulalry like the gold & silver colouring of her wings & leggings coupled with the soft pink. It's very striking with the mushroom being the traditional red. So interesting to see those Spectrums in use & I love the neat matting of the papers which really brings the whole design together.
