Lavinia World Challenge #23 ~ River Fairy

Hello crafting friends and welcome to challenge #23 at Lavinia World,
where the theme is always Anything Goes!

Sometimes, you just need a quick card and that is where the Lavinia papers come in handy.  There is such a wide variety of patterns and sizes, that there really is one suits your needs.  With this in mind, I used a sheet of the Moonlight Glow set to create the background for this card. 

Next, I die cut the large River Faerie out of black card stock and her wings out of vellum.  Lastly,  I stamped the various images to create my scene.  I have listed all the stamps I used further down in this post.

I wanted to show you a close up of her wings. I went over the vellum die cut with a shimmer pen.  The sparkle is beautiful and give the illusion that the moon beams are shining on her wings.

On the inside of my card, I used a few distress oxide inks to imitate the colours of the patterned paper. In real life, it the colours look a lot closer to the front of the card than what I could get on the photo.  I masked and little bank to put little Pipin on top.  He's looking a the Happy Birthday greeting. All images were stamped using VersaFine Clair inks.

That finished off my card which only took about 30 minutes to make.  I spent most of the time deciding where to stamp what on that beautiful paper to create just the right scene. As promised, here is the list of supplies I used, each linked to the Lavinia Wold store for your convenience.
