Fairy Blessings!

Hi everyone! Happy Monday! Happy Labor Day for those of you here in the US!!

Here is a card I made for TSG19, an AWESOME sketch challenge over at the BRAND NEW There She Goes Blog!! Have you been there yet? It's pretty fab! Each day there is something new...a challenge, a technique, Trendsetter info...it's chock full of fabulous TSG info!!

For my card, I started by stamping this UBER cute fairy from Fairy Good Day by There She Goes in Memento Tuxedo Black onto Choice Buttercream Cardstock! I colored her with Copic Markers in colors to match my yummy Early Bird paper from Cosmo Cricket!!

This paper is, hands down, my favorite patterned paper ever! I was SO afraid of running out that I ordered TONS of it with my friend Ann! We both have ALOT of Cosmo Cricket around now!!

I added some highlights with my White Gel Pen on my fairy to make her pop, and I also added two little white dots to her eyes. I added some Twinkles to each of the flower centers in her hair, as well as four on my sentiment panel.

The sentiment I used actually says "Fairy Blessings For A Beautiful Day", but I just inked up the "Fairy Blessings" part of the sentiment. I LOVE to do that...you get SO many options! My sentiment was popped out of a Large Oval Punch and layered on a Scallop Oval Punch. I used a double ribbon of Real Red and a light Turquoise, and finished off my card with a Cherry Brad by American Crafts in each corner!

Thanks SO much for stopping by! Make sure to head on over to the TSG Blog to play along in the challenge!! The challenge is open until next Monday and one winner will be chosen and will receive a $5.00 Gift Certificate to the There She Goes Store!!! WOOT!!
