I know, I shared a fairy card last week for Shopping our Stash - but this image is just so far beyond perfect for this week's challenge to create a Miss You card. I HAD TO USE IT.
Supplies: paper makeup fairy stamp; sentiment from Paper Smooches; Memento Tuxedo Black ink; Salty Ocean distress ink; Bic & Spectrum Noir markers; Simple Stories patterned paper; fabric, felt snowflakes from stash; Martha Stewart fine crystal glitter; Sakura Stardust glitter pen; pink rhinestones from Dollarama; Making Memories brads
I've carefully added crystal glitter on the wings & on her, uh, crystal ball? The thingy in her hand :) I then traced other details with the glitter pen (eyes, hair, etc). The fabric piece is one that had already been cut & heated with the heat tool to crumple it up, and then sat on my desk since it didn't work for the project I originally intended it for. The felt snowflakes have been in my stash FOREVER, and they're adhered with pewter brads you can hardly see.
I don't generally make cards with a recipient in mind, but I thought of the same person pretty much the entire time I was making this, so I'm thinking that's a sign that I should just send it!
Come & play along with this challenge until next Monday, January 20th - hop on by & leave the rest of my teamies some love!
xoxo,
Jessi

Oh my word Jessie! This is beyond gorgeous! I love the glitter touches in her hair, wings, and necklace. Thank you for sharing the close up so we could see those darling special touches. I struggle with photographing and making mine pick up the little things that make a big impact and this sure does! Hope you are doing well friend! I think of you daily even though I don't get around daily!
Your card is AWESOME, the image, the colouring, the sketch and all that glitter. I love the faux coral and the fabric. how cool is that.
Hi, Jessi, another beautiful and artsy creation! Very nicely composed and executed.

Hi Jessi, This is such a pretty design; all the elements are perfectly placed to draw the eye across the card. A lovely image - I love how you've added the glitter.
I hope you had a wonderful Christmas & best wishes for 2014! Hugs, Dawn
You may be the first person to EVER photograph glitter! :D
Love the card Jessi, she looks so sad and longingly into her crystal ball...I love the glitter accent...just beautiful!
Another beauty, Jessi! She looks so pensive, and is coloured so beautifully. All the accent pieces are perfect, too.
