IC702 - Fairy Garden Poppies

Photo Details

Poster: helekins

The inspiration for this card is from the Country Living site - Fairy Gardens. There are 19 of the little gardens - which would make perfect home for my fairy.

https://www.countryliving.com/garden...deas/?slide=18

For this card I selected water coloured backgrounds and created a little mound for the fairy to sit on using a mask and distress inks. I then created the garden using different Lavinia stamps. Next I stamped the fairy using Brilliance Graphite ink and Misti to get a nice dark impression. The fairy was then coloured in using gel glitter pens for sparkle. The garden is highlighted with liquid pearls and more flitter pens.

Hope you enjoy.

I love the colours you used in her wings, it makes them look a little like stained glass. I also like the rich depth of the layered vines at the top.
