Faerie Marci in the Garden

Hi all, hope you are all keeping well, another busy week here and another scheduled post.

For my inspiration this week over at the Mad for Markers Store Blog I have made this one layer card using this beautiful image Faerie Marci, from LaLa Land Crafts and is available from the M4M Store here.  I have wanted to try and make it look like she is fluttering around in the garden, I originally wanted to colour a little pond but a little to ambitious for me lol!  Maybe in a year or two lol!

Two closer looks to show the added spica, couldn't show it all with one photo lol!

This one shows the her tight, shoes and some of her wings better

IMPORTANT DATES

Zoe Celebrates Easel Card

Hi all, having a wettish weekend here, housework is done, so finally had time play and have another go at colouring a scene using Copics.  I have used the gorgeous image 'Zoe Celebrates' available from Make It Crafty.  I borrowed Morgan's jeans from the ironing pile and added some colourless blender and pressed on the jeans of the image to get a denim effect, also used an old pair of Rosanna's PJ's with the colourless blender and pressed in various places on the sky. 

Did have trouble with the grass couldn't make my mind up what colour looked best so there is a little bit of everything in there lol!  Now DH says it is all too bright but I kinda like it.  Decided she looks very happy, like she has just won the races (Melbourne cup here in Oz this weekend). 

The flowers are hand drawn using multiliners 0.3 green and 0.1 black.

The Happy Birthday chip board was sprayed with copics then clear spica added and then special effects.

The butterflies are from my MS border punch (these are the bits that should be thrown away but I am a hoarder lol) and then added liquid pearls for the body.  The rhinestones (bottom of the tulips) have been coloured using copic YG09.

The flower has been handmade using organza ribbon (think thats what you call it) with a rhinestone brad centre.

Papers Kaisercraft La-Di-Da and SU cardstock.   The cute tortoise ribbon is from Crafty Ribbons.
