Hello friends and welcome to my Fairy Stamper Friday share!
This week I have an Easter project to share with you.
You're probably thinking that I'm all over the place with my cardmaking, and you'd be right :-) We're in February and last week's project was Christmas and this week's it's Easter :-)
You see, when I see a stamp or a die that I love, budget allowing, I will buy it and then I have to play with it. Well, such was the case with this beautiful Easter Wreath stamp that I purchased during the previous International Stamps sales event. There was another one just this last weekend. Did you catch it? The best way to know about these is to subscribe to the Fairy Stamper newsletter.
I also love how Fairy Hugs stamps play beautifully with stamps from other companies. Let me show you ...
Look how pretty Lorella looks sitting on the wreath while waiting for the Easter Bunny.
I stamped the Easter Egg Wreath using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. Then I used copic markers to colour them. I stamped Lorella using VersaFine Onyx Black inkin order to get a darker crisper image. I then used glaze pens to add colour to her dress. To make her wings sparkly, I used Fairy Hugs Pink Glitter.
On the inside, I took the sentiment that comes in the center of the wreath and stamped that using the same VersaFine Onyx Black ink. I often cut my stamps apart and this was one of those occasions. I could have just inked the eggs and not the middle, and then vice versa when I wanted to stamp the sentiment alone, but it's just so much easier to have the stamp into two pieces. It doesn't destroy the stamp in any way or form and makes life a lot easier when wanting to separate the stamp elements. I stamped, coloured and fussy cut two of the eggs to add a little interest to the inside. I stamped the ends pieces of the Leafy Scrolls to ground the eggs.

All you have to do is to create a project using your stamps, and upload the pic to our challenge album. There is a prize drawn for one lucky crafter, at the end of every challenge. 😀
That's a beautiy Lena. She looks adorable sat in that egg wreath and what a brilliant idea to cut the stamp to make it more user friendly. An excellent interior as usual I see!! xx
