For my card I used an older stamp, Summer Tilda with Bowknot from the 2008 Shabby Chic collection. She is one of my favorites!

I went with a CAS style because I just couldn’t see flowers and lace with my tomboy. These colors are so bright and cheery, perfect for summer and sunshine! I always forget about my buttons so this was a perfect reason to dig them out for a little bit of flare. My card base is Bazill cardstock and my DP is Papermania Happy Days. Buttons are from Buttons Galore Class collection. The stars are stamps from Magnolia that I stamped with Archival ink - Sienna.

Vision of Sugarplums

Christmas already? It just started getting warm in Missouri where I am and here I am thinking about Christmas. For this creation I chose to use the adorable Cute Christmas Fairies, not one, two or three but the whole collection! When I was trying to figure out which image I wanted to use I started resizing and then wow! Sugarplums.

I used a few techniques coloring this. For the hair, including the small images I used the flicking technique. I really like how it turned out especially on Fairy Bear but of course he is larger so I had more control of my flicking.

For the sweater and the bear I wanted it to look furry. The sweater I colored normally and then went over it with the blender adding dots of blending solution over the sweater. For the bear I colored in dots. After it was all colored I then went over it with the blender. Pictures just doesn't do the bear justice but I am pleased with how it turned out.

After everything was colored I took some white glue and paintbrush and flicked out my glue around the little fairies. I then sprinkled Ranger Rock Candy glitter on them. The flicks turned out really nice.
