Fairy Fun Fridays week 5 - sketch



Well it's nearly 2am and I've only just got this finished - I had one of those days where everything that could possibly go wrong did! So I'll come back tomorrow and edit this with my card details, I just want my bed now lol. I'll just say that this week it's a sketch over at Fairy Fun Fridays and you can find the images that I used here.

Edited - oops just remembered that I was going to edit my post with the details. Used a large 8 x 8 card blank, mouse images from Prairie Fairy coloured with promarkers, and decoupaged the dresses and then just the frills on the skirts. All the fiddly cutting out took ages but I think it was worth it, it looks quite effective on these images. Paper is Papermania, with yellow coredinations and pink cardstock from my stash. Used my new MS butterfly border punch and used some of the butterfly punch outs for the corners. Added some pink raffia lace, a Papermania bow and button and Green Tara flowers with a button centre. The sentiment is computer generated - this card is one that an online friend has ordered for her 6yr old daughter to give to her younger sister (whose favourite colour is yellow!).

I'm also entering my card for the following challenges:
