Hope you don't mind but I've added an extra pic :
Good Morning friends x How are you today ? I'm happy today because it's Tuesday and you know what that means don't you ? Yes,you are so right,it's another fabulous challenge at My Time To Craft Challenge and this week the theme is Jewels. Isn't that a great theme ? We would love to see your creations that have anything to do with jewels. I had loads of ideas for this one from a Pirate Chest to a String of Pearls but I am still in 'fairy' mode so this is what I ended up making.
A sugar-sweet colour palette (very Spring-like) and I do think lemon and pink go well together especially when we are talking dressy-uppy little girls don't you think ? The whole design started with the Jewelled Crown which I bought over a year ago thinking it was perfect for adding to a card for my Grandaughter. The next thing was this perfect image from Polka Doodles which already had a crown but I was able to mask it to leave a space for the gem crown.She is actually a Christmas Stamp and her name is Fairy Polly. Say Hello to Polly lol
I stamped on to watercolour paper and coloured with watercolour paints again.I actually did 4 images altogether in order to practice,improve and make sure I had something worthwhile in the end. I'm happy to say that I now have 3 decent images all completed and added to a card design (yay!!Hope to show you another time). I added Glamour Dust to the wings and Stickles here and there for that fairy touch.
The DP's are BasicGrey Porcelain (all so pretty),the image is matted on to glitter card,the flowers are Wild Orchid Crafts and the sentiment is Craft Work Cards. I based the design on a sketch at Sweet Stampin Challenge.
