I began by coloring her with my Copics, using my favorite group of colors - purples! She has mistletoe, but what's wrong with a little purple at Christmas time? Answer: absolutely nothing!
Once I was finished coloring, I also added massive amounts of glitter glue. Just because shimmer and shine make me happy! Here's a tilted view for maximum shine.
Finishing up the card, I die cut the colored fairy using my oval dies, and mounted her with some very old purple cardstock that's been in my stash for ages. Literally - this is from 10+ years ago when I was a Stampin' Up demo. Do they even make Orchid Opulence anymore? No idea. The message is from a great clear set of messages from Whimsy Stamps called Snowflake Wishes. I embossed it in silver on vellum, then die cut it with my same oval die so it would line up perfectly. The glittery silver corners are from the Hero Arts Snowflakes die set. And I finished the card with some sequins.
It's so much fun to color these Whimsy Stamps - check them out if you haven't already!
Wishing you peace, love and joy - thanks for stopping by!
