Garden Fairies

A card created using one of my new Crafts And Me rubber stamps, Tim Holtz Distress Inks and embossing folders, Spellbinders and Magnolia 'Sprawling Ferns' dies. Cosmic Shimmer embossing powder, ribbon, Melissa Frances lace and a handcoloured pin. The sentiment is a clear stamp from Mark's Finest Papers. I used chalks over the embossed background.

Winter Birthday

Good morning all, it's a lovely bright but chilly morning here on the east coast of England and as i was up so early i made a card using Crafts And Me's 'Irish Christmas Fae' but i'm not using this card for Christmas it's for a Birthday. I think this is a gorgoeus image and i hope i have done it justice with my colouring, i used Promarkers and Distress Inks. Papers are Basic Grey and Docrafts, Cardstock is Tim Holtz Coredinations.
