fairy card

This flower fairy stamp just arrived recently, so I'm having some fun with it. I used art paper for this and got a different effect with distress inks. It bleeds around the stamped lines. I especially like the effect on the wings, which I've also highlighted with a bit of sparkle.


The image is rather large, so I had a go at making an easel card.

 

This card is being entered in the following challenges:
Sketch Saturday - week #151, sketch rotated clockwise
Let's Ink It Up -  challenge #13, show us your stitching
Cupcake Craft Challenges - cupcake 138, lots of layers (on the ribbon border)
