This week I created a faeries in a lovely English type flower garden to meet challenges for a few folks:
How much more English can you get than Shakespeare? Place the faerie among a garden of flowers to meet the English Garden Challenge at Scrapbook Sisters.
The bling that was added via inking a Sizzix embossing folder and adding a bit of lace to the side to meet the needs at Sugar Creek Hollow’s Paper Flowers, Vintage Lace & Bling challenge.
Opus Gluei wanted something inspired by Midsummer’s Dream. And don’t forget, this is a Blog Hop !
I’m not sure who will get this card, but I know plenty of folks who would enjoy it.
How did I make it?
I used some images I have from pre-1923 postcards. I cut out the lady faerie and placed her inside the hoop which had a white background before I inked it with Tim Holtz Dusty Concord. The hoop was part of a garden postcard that I then isolated the flowers on and layered.
The final touch of lace on the green inked embossing folder in yellow placed on a nice purple cardstock completes the card.
Lovely, dreamy garden. Perfect fairies for the OPUS GLUEI challenge. Thank you so much for playing with us.
I love this – I really enjoy a collaged look and the images and embellishments you’ve chosen work wonderfully together. This is really pretty and definitely inspired by the fae and all things magical!
Thank you for participating with us at Opus Gluei, we love to see lovely inspiration from new people – hope you come back for more challenges with us!
Very pretty. I love the lace and the cluster of flowers. Thanks for joining in our challenge at Sugar Creek Hollow. Hope to see you back again soon.
