WILLY & EBONY CARD

Good Morning to my lovely Blogging friends

Today I have another Emerald Faeries Garden card to show off to you all & this time I did a little something
different!
I coloured Willy  & then coloured Ebony  Plus the top of mushroom & then snipped the stem off. I cut Willy out as to with Ebony & placed them at the front of the card with foam tape to give that 3D look. The other mushies are a stamp which I think is a Whiff of Joy rubber stamp. i used a peice of cardstock to make a new stem for Ebony's mushie.

I then used 1 of my dies cuts to do the foliage & the big flower is a handmade flower with a rose in the center of it. The lil pearl embellies are something I picked up in a $2 shop here in Australia.
The Ticket Stamp is from Whimsy  & I have used the Ticket Die Cut from Whimsy Stamps to back the Ticket Sentiment.

 

Here is a close up of the sweet & adorable Emerald Faeries  I used- Willy & Ebony, whom have been coloured with Copic Markers

The Emerald Faeries Challenge Blog  & running with our very first Challenge too Ladies, so jump in & enter- our theme for this month is "Anything Goes"
