Inventory Challenge #45 - Fairies

Good morning, everyone!!
Today is week #45 of the ongoing Inventory Reduction Challenge that I am privileged to be a part of now and I am loving it!  The idea is to use what we have on hand and not buy anything new for our cards.

This week's theme is Fairies.  I'm not a fairy person, so I had no stamps that would work and had to borrow from two wonderful friends - Rene and Kim. Then I couldn't decide which card to use.  I also don't know if a Maggie image had to be used.  So today you get two for the price of one.

This is the card I made using Kim's stamp set.  The fairy is in silhouette and really doesn't show very well.  Tilda is very absorbed in watching little miss fairy do her thing.  She may be dreaming of flying away to a far mystical land and maybe taking Edwin with her. 

I used my Stampin' Up! markers and colored the stamp, then stamped the paper.  I wanted more than one flower as the original stamp had, so I stamped all the flowers first, then did one with the fairy and mushroom colored.   Then I did the fairy and mushroom again, cut them out and added to the card.  I found a bunch of thin round plastic pieces I had been saving and glued one over the fairy to give her a little bubble.  It shows a bit in the picture.
I colored Dreamy Tilda with my Copics and cut out and popped her up on dimensionals.  The cloud with the sentiment is also popped up.
I didn't keep track of the colors I used though.

On the left inside the sentiment reads "All you need is faith, trust and pixie dust".  The gray areas around the words and the wand and stars is Shimmerz Pixie Dust.
The right hand side has "go ahead WISH" stamped several times.  I inked the stamp and then hit the dp three times and inked again and stamped a couple more times.  I glued three more of the round things on some of the bubbles on the dp.  The word "wish" is coated with Pixie Dust.  The flower is popped up on dimensionals. 


My friend Rene sent me this digi stamp to help me out with this week's theme.  Isn't this little fairy gal just the cutest?  Now you can see why I couldn't choose between the two!
I used my Prismacolor pencils and Gamsol to color this card.  I put Star Dust Stickles on her wings and the bee's wings.  The flower centers are yellow Stickles.
The cardstock is DCWV Shimmer and Cryogen White.  The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and Hooked on Craft.  The ribbon is from the stash.  The sentiment is from the set Kim loaned me.

 The inside paper is from Magnolia's Fairytale Paper Pack.  The stars were cut using my Star Nesties.  The sentiment is from Kim's set.  The stars were sponged and popped up on dimensionals.  The star flowers are from Hooked on Craft.  I really like how this card turned out!


Hope you have had an enjoyable jaunt down Fairytale Lane with my cards.  Please leave a little love so I'll know you were here.
