I Love You Fairy Much - Streamside Studios

Hello and happy Monday crafty people! Today I am back sharing an adorable fairy card, that is perfect for Valentine's day or any day really when you want to let someone know how much they mean to you. I don't normally send out Valentine's cards, but I may this year to let some special little girls in my life know how much I love them. Let's get creating!

I absolutely adore this sweet little fairy...let's call her Sparkle. I think it's a very fitting name for her! This little fairy is from the Fairy Fun Valentines digital stamp set from Streamside Studios and she is beautifully illustrated. I love these images from Shawne! To create this card I first printed out the image (maybe a bit bigger than I had wanted, but the bigger the better, right?) and the sentiment using my laser printer. I cut her out with my Scan N' Cut and then started to add some colour to her to bring her to life with my Copic markers.

Next I got out one of my 10 half bottles of Stardust Stickles (okay maybe not 10 bottles, but pretty close) and added some sparkle to her wings because you can't be a fairy doesn't without sparkly wings. I used a paintbrush to try and give it a light layer of the stickles, as it can sometimes clump up and ntot look very fairy like. I also added some little white dots around the bottom of her dress using a white gel pen.

For my background I wanted to keep this more clean and simple but I still wanted to add a bit of interest, so I added a stenciled heart background using a light pink Distress Oxide ink. I then added that to my top folding card base with some foam tape and then added Sparkle and the sentiment also with some little foam squares. I finish it off I added a few sequins in a co-ordinating light pink.

And there you have it! The sweetest little fairy you ever did see! She really is pretty adorable with her little hairbow and garland of hearts. I had fun with her and colouring her too! I hope you love her just as much as I do! If you head on over to Streamside Studios Etsy shop you will find so many other absolutely adorable digital stamp sets filled with the cutest images ever!

As always I thank you very much for stopping by and spending some time with me. I hope you have yourself a wonderful day and take a bit of time for yourself to get crafty!

Thank you and until next time,

Mchelle 😄
