Christmas fairy


I had a lovely time colouring some images on Friday whilst our new windows were being fitted. After doing the ironing there really wasn't anything useful I could do. I coloured 10 images so yesterday I was able to make three cards and have seven coloured images left to use.  I really enjoy a colouring session like that and must do that more often.

I adore Marina Fedotova's beautiful artwork and Whimsy Stamps now have several of her designs which used to be sold by Sugar Nellie.  This is Snowflake Wishes coloured with Copics. I used a Sakura clearstar pen for the silver bells and snowflakes and a Spectrum Noir moonlight sparkle brush pen on her wings. Having the image already coloured gave me more time to spend on the card and I  got out my heat gun to use with the Stampendous chunky white embossing enamel.  I used MFT wonky stitched rectangle and circle dies, a snowflake die, Memory Box I think plus a Tonic snowflake punch.  The papers are Wild Rose Frosted Lace.
