The colors Karen picked for this week's challenge are just so sweet-- Mint Macaron, Petal Pink, Pool Party -- and dessert is metallic. I used silver cs for the metallic on this card.
This card is pretty straight forward. I die cut the scallop panel, clouds and tress; punched the stars from silver cs; glued them all together and then onto a silver panel. I didn't have the petal pink cs, so I colored a piece of scrap cs with my closest Copic marker. Colored and fussy-cut the fairy image; stickled the wings (of course!) and glue it down. I stamped the card base with a bg stamp for a bit of texture before adding the silver panel on top.
This little fairy is exhausted after a full day of decorating: finding the perfect tree; painting it her favorite color of pink; gathering the stars from the sky and filling the tree with them. Whew! I hope you're not too tired to join us for this week's Color Challenge, though. I would love to see what you create with these lovely colors. TFL.

What a sweet angel fairy. Beautiful design with the clouds and trees. The scallop edging is a nice touch! Wonderful inspiration for the challenge colors.

That M.M. sleeping angel is just the most adorable image!! The little story you added makes this card so sweet. Love that you stamped the bg.......adds a little something, but not too much. Altogether a beautiful card.
