My Little Fairy Princess

Hi everyone, I am back. I told you this morning that I was being creative, well that is partly true. I was also working on my office. I have been working around a lot of clutter and other hobbies, mainly genealogy. My computer desk was a mess and my scrapbook/card making work area was even worse. I have been working the last couple of days to make my space a crap free zone. I have moved alot of things cleared up my work space and moved a lot of things around. I cleaned out my walk in closet that I had been using for a storage closet and now it will be an extension of my work space. I bought a bookcase today that I will put in the closet to use for all of the stuff that will come off of my corner computer desk and I will be able to use the shelves on this desk to hold baskets of craft items. I feel liberated . The space is now open enough for two people to work in. But now I just have to put the bookcase together. Ok, enough about this.

You will have noticed that my blog is going through some changes. I think it is having a nervous breakdown. At the end of April it will be my 6 months anniversary. When I started this I did not think that I would make it 6 days. So I am trying to think of ways to celebrate. But, over the next week or so, the blog will probably take on some new personalities and colors. I will be trying them on for size.

I am back to post one of the cards that I have been working on. It is of course for a few challenges. It is the first time that I have used a fairy as my image. The image is a freebie from Cute Daisy May store. And the challenges is from the Cute Daisy May challenge blog, Linnie picked Fairies to be the challenge, so it is only right that I use one of her fairies. The next challenge is from Sophisticat Challenge Blog it is a color challenge "Mint green, lilac, and flowers plus any other color". The next challenge is from Raise the Bar  April fools, to do something totally different that usual. Well, I don't usually use fairies on my cards and the card to me is really busy. I like more of a clean look. But I like this. The next challenge is from the Secret Crafters Saturday Challenge the challenge is a color one, pink, green and flowers. So the pink is the other color for the Sophisticat challenge and they just go together.

The image is colored with copics. E31, E33, E09, E15, RV02, V04, and BG13. The papers are from Basic Grey, cherish and urban prairie. The card base is Bazzill. The pink embosed paper is Paper Studio. The bling is from my stash. the embossed green papers are from Tuesday Morning and the flowers are from my stash. I cut the leaves with a Martha Stewart punch. the ribbon is from my stash. I used crystal stickles on the wings. I really think that she looks like she is ready to fly off to Neverland...

The sketch for this card is from Sketch Saturday. I won the challenge over there 2 weeks ago. See my side bar. I won a $25 shopping spree at Simon Says Stamp. My new stamps are on there way to me.

I would really like to hear what you think of this card. It is so not my usual style.
