Hi all,
I found this site interesting and there were two or three that REALLY peaked my interest. This is the one I decided to go with here
I used my Misti to get a really good black image of my fairy (stamping several times to cover well) then I used my Misti for placement of the mushroom and other fairyland things. I then used my sponge tool to pat color on. I did several layers of color leaving my upper center light for a glow. I used bleach with a fine paintbrush to take off some of the colors where I wanted to add a glowy look and add some of my own different color. I tried to convey the same feeling with my mushrooms as the patchwork quilt look of the roof tops. Also tried to emulate the cloud look with the dabbing of my color.
Thanks for looking! Oh and BTW, thanks Susie Australia for being such an enabler...I had to go out and buy some of these stamps after you used them you know!!!

WOW, amazing card, Robin! I love the touches of color you added to the mushrooms and other images and the way you created the aura around the twinkling stars! Well done!

I am loving this. So rich and you got the sky down perfectly...I actually like yours better because it glows vs cloud light....and the mushrooms with their little glow spots...SO cool! I'm keeping this one.

This is gorgeous, Robin. At first, I thought it was one of Susie's cards with the colorful bg, fairy theme and taller format...but it is YOURS!! Magnificently done and a real beauty.
