Scilla the Fairy

Morning lovely peeps - hope you are well! I'm feeling good and will be attending my last two bootcamps this weekend - can't wait to get off this high protein diet but it has made me feel really well!  I'm very excited about the card I've got to share with you today- its all just come together nicely and I'm really pleased with it. It features a digi called Scilla the Fairy which you can get here Digital-Fairies from Crafty Sentiments Designs and I think she's stunning:



The verse is from the wonderful Barbara Gray - Clarity stamp. There's another thing - just booked on a miniworkshop with Barb at the Harrogate show - I'm so excited and can't wait to actually work with the lady herself.

Anyway - back to my card - My digi was coloured with promarkersand I've put filigree marks with a glue pen on the wings and then glittered them - I'm not sure if it shows up in the picture. The card is an easel card that I've covered with basic gray paper and added some very ancient skeleton leaves from my stash and some leaves I cut out from hunky dory toppers. I think thats all.

I'd like to enter my card for the following challenges:

    Hi Rachel, she is very beautiful and so is your card. I love those words by Keats and they look lovely in Barbara's distinctive style. Her classes at Harrogate are a lot of fun - you will need to be up at the crack of dawn! Good luck with your challenges, I have done the Emergency Crafters one too. Crafty hugs, Anne x

    What a gorgeous card, Rachel it really is beautiful and I agree that the image is lovely. I have to say that although Barbara made the stamp, the verse is actually by John Keats. And it is so perfect for your lovely card. Thank you for sharing with us at Delicious Doodles. Good luck. Vee (DD DT)

    Rachel it's gorgeous! She perfectly fits with the sentiment and the colours you've used just make it work together.
    Ooh I'm so green with envy - a class with BG!!!! Make sure you get yourself a SplodgeAway Mat while you are there - they are that blooming good.
    I'm in the middle of brayering and stamping a couple of landscapes right now and I love it! Karen x
