Aurora Fairy

Greetings, Blogging Friends!

It's time for a brand new Back to Basics and Beyond Challenge!

For the next two weeks, join us by uploading an "Anything-Goes" project as long as it uses our sketch. The team has all kinds of inspiration and a variety of styles to view, so take a look! Hope to see yours there.

In place of the "white square", I've used this darling heart die cut with embossed hearts.

The English Lace paper was stark white, so I rubbed Brilliance Lime Green Pearlescent ink over it, and distressed with hand-blended glitter embossing powder (combination of Bullfrog EP404 and Green Nugget Ultrafine glitter). (the heart die cut has also been distressed in the same way).

The fairy was heat embossed with an unexpectedly delicate color Pink Lady EP337. She was stamped on watercolor paper with VersaFine Clair Charming Pink, heat embossed, saturated with water, and colored with Zig and Tombow markers. A fine layer of pearlescent coloring was also added to the green dress.

 

A fine layer of pearlescent coloring was also added to the green dress:
