Isabella

Hello there!
It's time for A & T Emerald Faeries new challenge- Use a Doily.   It was so much fun creating this card using A & T's image Isabella.  Isn't she a doll (fairy doll?)!  


Almost all of the images are from the A & T or Emerald Faeries shop- roses, log, and Pip, who is the little guy up in the right corner.  The long stem roses are from an old stamp I have.  Oh and the little bird at the bottom, that is from my best buddy!  Such a cute little addition, eh? 


Close up of Isabella.  The inside is matted like the front, adding a border of DP and a rose.
Making Isabella entailed mostly Prisma pencil coloring and cutting out the images. Adhered and pop-dotted on DP and matted 3 times with card stock.  Added a few drops of Glossy Accents for dew and on Gummy.  Paper pieced and added wire antenna to the butterfly.  The doily is from that same friend!  Thank you, friend!

Not much happening around here.  We are in a heat spell but are to cool off next week.  Wish I could keep it summer time!  I'm guessing one talks about the weather when things are pretty quiet.  Quiet doesn't make good conversation but it can be a good thing to have!  That means no noisy drama is going on at the moment.  But things change quickly around here so I'm waiting to hear the shoe drop!!!

Hope to see you at the A & T Emerald Faeries challenge this fortnight!  We also run the A & T  Challenge alternate fortnights.   Sometimes the theme is a great sketch, or bingo, or some other fun theme to delight you!  Check out both these challenges, you'll be wowed by the Emerald Faeries DT Girls!  Enter and you can win from the A & T fantastic stores!  Sure hope to see your creations!

That's it from this Emerald Fairy Girl.  Hoping you have a quiet week!

  22. Thanks for placing up this article. I'm unquestionably frustrated with struggling to research out pertinent and rational commentary on this matter. everyone now goes in the direction of the amazingly much extremes to possibly generate home their viewpoint that either: everyone else within earth is wrong, or two that everyone but them does not genuinely recognize the situation. pretty numerous many thanks for the concise, pertinent insight....
