Today I'm showing you 'Fairy Sweet Jolinne' and she *is* a sweetie!!! Just look at that adorable little face!!! I stamped the image on a Perfect Paper Panel with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored her with Copic markers. Another super simple sketch to highlight this super sweet image. I added some buttons and a Mercy flower (LOVE these flowers--so much fun! I only used 7 layers of paper since I knew I was going to add a button to the center) as the only embellishments.After I stamped and colored the image I wanted to do something special with her wings. So I stamped them again on some iridescent vellum I had in my stash and cut them out.
Then I just glued them onto the colored image. I don't know if you can tell, but the sheen on this vellum looks sorta aqua or pink depending on how the light hits it. Pretty!
And then I attached the whole thing to the card, sorta bending the vellum wings a bit to lift them off the paper and to add more dimension.
Here's the inside of the card. All buttons are from MFT's Spring button collection.
