9th birthday fairy

Sep21

Dark blue is one shade that I struggle to colour. Having said that, I quite like the halo of bleeding around this fairy’s hat at it looks fluffy. I have used a delightful digistamp from Pollycraft. The backing paper and numbers ar old Kanban stash and the sentiment is Hunkydory. I’ve added some bling tomake this card extra special for the nine-year-old who’ll receive it.

Husbands, love your wives and never treat them harshly. When a man truly loves a woman, there is nothing he wouldn’t do for her. He shows her respect. He listens intently to her when something is heavy on her mind. He prays with her. He studies God’s word with her.

Colossians 3:19

I have used a Pollycraft digistamp for todays’ card which was teamed with free papers from a magazine.

Today’s 8 x 8 card was made using a Pollycraft image.

The Promarker colours I have used are coral, peach and soft peach, tea green and soft green, pastel beige and satin, canary and tulip yellow. The backing papers were from Docrafts’ Tea Party range, one of which was trimmed down to look like lace. The Ribbon was a scrap in my stash and the sentiment and foiled paper ribbon were from Hunkydory.
