Fairy moon dance



Good morning to you all, it's time for our new challenge at Allsorts where this week Tracy has come up with the theme of 'Bring on the Bling'. Our sponsors is Scrappers Delight.

I have read on several blogs that as well as Blogger meddling with our followers, some people have discovered they have been removed from blogs they follow even though they use a Google ID and have had to sign up to those blogs again. So if you are missing a visit from me lately please give me a nudge because realistically it's impossible to realise this or that blog is no longer showing up on a reading list.

Now onto my card, it wasn't my initial plan but I seem to have ended up with a rather purple card. I started by stamping the trio of Lavinia fairies, masking them and then stamping two of them again, left the masks in place and inked just the trunk and root of the tree, cleaned that section then inked and lined up the top part to extend the height.

I then used Pan Pastes and some ripped paper to create the background, masking a large sun, or maybe it's a moon and the fairies are doing a moon dance, totally open to interpretation. I stamped leaves across the top with an Art Impression stamp, little flying fairy and some toadstools across the bottom, all of which are Lavinia stamps. And to finish lots of glitter, a nice organza bow and pearl and gem ribbon slide.

Have a good weekend all.

A wonderful creation Brenda, always have a thing about silhouette cards, great colours.
I rip a lot of paper too, but not for backgrounds, usually 'cos I've made a mess.
Also sorry forgot about the Paper Pad.

Hi Brenda

Greta said...

Just re-read your post & realize you used Pan Pastels. I need to use mine! PS--I have quite a few wood mounted DeNami stamps as they were in my LSS when I began stamping. they're not too far north of me & are still in business. Art Impressions is even closer to me & used to have a retail store & classes--I even taught a couple there!

MaryH said...

The fairies are having a delightful dancing time in the moonlight (I think fairies dance in the moon, right?). Love the purple hills, the corner leaves hanging down, and all the wonderful images you've added in with the fairies to create this magical scene. I'm always pleased when I can recognize a wonderful Lavinia stamp - especially in the hands of a Pro! TFS & Hugs.

mags said...

This is beautiful Brenda. Love the little scene and the colour.
