I'm this week's WTUI hostess for Ride the Wind! I've chosen to Ride the Wind as a fairy with my own wings! This week's Color Challenge had the perfect colors for the Autumn Fairy.
I printed the Molly Harrison digital stamp and colored with alcohol markers adding highlights with colored pencils and metallic gel pens. I masked the fairy, moon and leaves and sponged a night sky, then the moon. I die cut the panel and added gold gel pen to mimic stitching, adhered to a black card base. TFL
Hope you'll come play along!

Oh my, Carla, what a gorgeous fairy! Your coloring is exquisite, and I love your color combination. The sky and beautiful moon are stunning, and I especially love how you've framed it with the wonky stitched die and how you've colored it. The stitches look so real! I love it! Hugs and love! xoxo

What a beautiful image and absolutely fabulous colouring. I love her green wings and those autumnal leaves drifting down. Look up Jim Fitzpatrick Celtic Art and you'll see why this reminded me straight away of his cards.

Amazing fairy image and you've colored her so exquisitely! Love the leaves floating in the background against the night sky and how the large moon highlights her. A stunning card Carla!
