Charming Fairy

The challenge at Stamptacular Sunday is "Charmed I'm Sure." This means you can make any card you want but you must include a charm. Here's a closeup of the charm.

It says "Made with Love" on it. I normally use these charms for cards I make for family and friends. I'm also trying come up with something to put on the back of my cards now that I'm making cards for family members to give out. Maybe I could sell a card or two! It will have to include a butterfly and I think something like "Change of Heart Creations" but that's not very creative.

But I digress -- The image is "Lovely Fairy" from Auntie Amy's stamps. This is one of my favorites. I used watercolor pencils to color her. I glittered her wings, the little starbursts, and the flowers on her dress. She just has to have glitter. I didn't used to like bling but it has started growing on me! All the paper is Basic Grey Porcelain. The spacers and charm I got in the jewelery department at Joann's. Everything else is from my stash.

Blessings,
