Poinsettia Fairy

Good morning all.  How are you all today?  Well December is here, how's the Christmas shopping going?  I made a good inroad whilst I was away last week.  Couple more bits and hubby to sort out and I will be done.  He is the most difficult, honestly, I never know what to buy him and getting it in the house is a nightmare given he is retired and gets to the door first!

1st of the month means a new challenge starting at Creative Ladybirds Creations.

Challenge No 10 is Anything Goes

Our sponsors are: -

Ikes World

Bugaboo Stamps

For my card this month I chose an image from Ikes World called Poinsettia Fairy.

After printing her out I coloured her in using a mixture of copic sketch markers for the skin and Tim Holtz markers for the flower garland and hair.

I have used white base card 21cm by 21cm in size and used Creative Expressions Noble Collection Double Pierced Squares Set B Dies for matting and layering.  My final layer I have used pearlescent card and a poinsettia embossing folder.  

I scanned my image into my BSC and put an oval around it to cut it out.  I then designed the frame and cut that out in pearlescent card too.

My poinsettia flowers are dies from Tattered Lace as are the ivy die and the branch die.

I think she is a lovely image and to be honest although I have chosen Christmas colours she could be used for any occasion as the flowers could be coloured in different colours and would become lillies or clematis.
