Fairy Stamper ~ Happy New Year!

 Hello crafting friends and welcome to my last Fairy Stamper Friday share!

  I have enjoyed this creative journey for a little over 3 years, but I decided to step down and reduce my DT projects for now.  Life is a little crazy at the moment and I'm not having as much time to craft as I would like.

Since it is the end of 2022 and the New Year celebrations are upon us this weekend, I made a Happy New Year card.  Take a look ...

I began by using a slimline piece of cardstock from the Fairy Hugs Slimline collection.  Next I stamped the fairies, then masked them and stamped the mushrooms.  Then I stamped the flowers.  When the ink was dry, I stamped the fireworks using VersaMark ink and used gold, blue and silver embossing powders to add colour and shine to them.  Lastly I added the glitter to the fairy wings and little "flowers" to the green vines.

On the inside, I kept it very simple by computer generating the greeting and ink blending around it. I used gold mirror cardstock to add a little shine to this Happy New Year card.

Now for the list of supplies I used, each linked to the Fairy Stamper store, for your convenience.

Fairy Hugs Papers - Moon Light Night

Fairy Hugs Stamps - Spoolwood Mushrooms, Peony, Iris, Fireworks, Hanging Vines

Marianne Designs - Wild Flowers

Fairy Hugs Glitter - Translucent Pearl

Fairy Stamper ~ Snowflake Swirls

 Hello friends and welcome back to my Fairy Stamper Friday share!

When the ballerina fairies begin to dance, snowflakes begin to swirl and Quilo joins in with some prancing of his own :-)

Using a Fairy Hugs paper, and a few Fairy Hugs stamps, I created this magical scene. I stamped the different images in different colours to create a little contrast and depth. I've listed all the supplies I used later on in this post.

On the inside I kept it simple so that I have plenty of space to write my own personal message. In order to carry the magic to the inside of the card, I stamped another snowflake swirl and the Christmas greeting.

Listed below are the supplies I used to make my card, each linked the Fairy Stamper store, for your convenience.

Fairy Stamper ~ The Majestic Luna & Friends

 Hello friends and welcome back to my Fairy Stamper Friday share!

Do you think that if I keep making Summer cards, I can keep Winter away?

Now there's a happy thought for me 😀

Those two little turtles have become Luna's constant companions.  I think they feel safe in her majestic presence 😀  To make this card, I used several stamps from a few companies, all available at the Fairy Stamper store.  A little masking here and there and a little colouring and this card came together in very little time.  It's easy when you use one of the Fairy Hugs pre made backgrounds.

As always, here is the list of supplies I used to make this card, each linked to the

Fairy Stamper store, for your convenience.

Fairy Stamper ~ Tea Party

Hello friends and welcome back to my Fairy Stamper Friday share!

 

It's the beginning of September and that means it's back to school in Fairy Land, but not without an end of Summer party.  The tables are set and the lights are on, so let the party begin!

I love using pre-inked background papers. Makes it so much easier, less messier and less time consuming :-)

As soon as I saw this one from the Bumbletwinkle pack I knew it would be perfect for the scene I had in mind. I then stamped the various elements using a variety of inks and colours and added a touch of colour here and there with copic markers.  To finish it off, I added a small bead of glassy accents to all the lights.  To continue with the theme, on the inside, I added a little teapot and teacup on a tree stump.

Here is the list of supplies I used, each one linked to the Fairy Stamper store, for your convenience.

Fairy Hugs Papers ~ Bumbletwinkle 6" x 6" Paper Pad

Fairy Hugs Stamps ~ Sunflower Table, Willow Vines, Party Lights, Tea Icons, Treat Set, Stardust Magic

Fairy Stamper ~ Doria's Treasure

Happy Friday crafting friends, and welcome back to my Fairy Stamper Friday share!

 While exploring the ocean floor,  Doria came upon this chest filled with treasure.

How extremely lucky can one mermaid be?

After cutting out all the layers of the Message in the Bottle Stencil, I began to build my scene by stamping and masking a few elements to give it a lil bit of  the 3D effect. I used a piece of Fairy Hugs paper to help with the background colours.  I used a combination of VersaFine Clair and Memento inks.  I used glaze gel pens to add colour to the treasure, as well as Doria's tail.   On the inside, I kept it very simple by just stamping another piece of coral and inking it blue around the edges. Lastly I stamped the sentiment.

Now for the list of supplies I used, each one to the Fairy Stamper store, for your convenience.

Fairy Hugs Stamps - Willow Vines, Fish School, Treasure Chest, 

Ivy Seaweed, Doria, Deepest Wishes

Fairy Stamper - Tea Time

Hello friends and welcome back to my Fairy Stamper Friday share!

 

My little granddaughter was invited to a tea party to celebrate a friend's birthday.  While talking to her about it, I showed her one of the tea sets I have, and although I don't have any that look like this, it was the inspiration for this card 😀

This card was very easy to put together and it's pretty much self explanatory. If you're one of my followers you know how I enjoy mixing stamps and dies to get the look I'm after, so this card was fun to make. 

Here is the list of supplies I used to make this card, all linked to the Fairy Stamper store, for your convenience.

Fairy Hugs Stamps - Gingko Branch, Like a Teacup

Fairy Hugs Glitter - Translucent Pearl, Translucent Orchid

Fairy Stamper ~ Holy Night

 Hello friends and welcome back to my Fairy Stamper Friday share!

In keeping with my Christmas in July theme, here is the card I made to share with you this week. 

I started by using a background paper from the Bumbletwinkle paper pad.

Next I stamped Jesus, Mary and Joseph, and the palm trees.  To finish it off, I added a few stars to the sky, using my white gel pen.

On the inside, I took a scrap piece of the paper I had used and adhered it to a piece of very light lilac cardstock. Next I stamped the palm tree and the greeting.  I matted both pieces onto green cardstock card base and voila, another Christmas card done 😀

Now for the supplies I used on this card, each linked to the Fairy Stamper store.

Fairy Hugs Papers - Bumbletwinkle

Nellie's Choice - Nativity

Fairy Stamper ~ Delicious Berries

  Hello friends and welcome to my Fairy Stamper Friday share!

 Lorella is telling the bunnies that they need to go find their momma because there is an owl flying high in the sky and it's not safe for three little bunnies to be all alone.  The bunnies, however, seem to have no problem taking a risk as long as they can get some more of those berries.  They are quietly standing in line and hoping that the owl doesn't see them ...

I love pre printed backgrounds. It sure helps in getting a card done that much quicker.  I used a slimline paper from Fairy Hugs, and then stamped the various images, masking along where necessary to create my scene.  On the inside, I stamped some more of the wild flowers as well as the greeting.  I added the red berries to the front and inside of the card using a red glaze pen. Once they were dry, I added glitter to Lorella's wings and flowers.

The supplies I used are listed below, each linked to the Fairy Stamper store for your convenience.

Fairy Hugs Stamps

Lorella, Thank You Stamp Set, Deepest Wishes, Bunnies, Morels, Flying Owl

Fairy Stamper ~ Sneak Peek ~ Valentina

 Hello friends. Today, for my Fairy Stamper Friday share, I have a sneak peek of our new release coming out on Monday.

You're going to love it, it's perfect to make all your Valentine cards.

I'd like to introduce you to Valentina. Isn't she pretty? She is patiently waiting for her Fairy Prince and hoping that he arrives in time for their Valentine celebration.

I began by using a Fairy Hugs piece of Purple Fairy paper and stamped the Foliage Swirl in VersaFine's Rain Forest Green ink. Next, I stamped the Valentina fairy in VersaFine Nocturne ink. Using different green colour pencils, I added colour to the leaves.  For Valentina's dress and the little hearts I used a red glaze pen.  To add a little sparkle to Valentina's wings, I used Fairy Hugs Currant glitter.

If you're wondering about the inside of the card, I have not finished it yet, but I'm going to tell you what I'm going to do.  I'm going to take  a piece of 5.25" x 5.25" cardstock and adhere strips of 1/4" double sided tape to each edge.  Then I'm going sprinkle it with the Fairy Hugs Currant glitter, just as I did on the front.  I'm going to take another piece of the Purple Fairy paper and adhere that to the glittered paper, and stamp my sentiment right in the middle of the oval.  The reason I haven't finished the inside, is because I ran out of the Purple Fairy paper.  I need to get another lot next time I place an order.  As for the sentiment, I'm not sure yet but Fairy Hugs has a fun selection of sentiments just perfect for a variety of occasions, so I'm sure I'll find one.   These, of course, are all available at the Fairy Stamper store.

Thank you so much for stopping by today.   Remember that Valentina and the Foliage Swirl are part of our new release and will be available on Monday at the Fairy Stamper store.  Join our Facebook group and see lots more "Sneak Peeks" that the DT has made for you.  This has to be one of my favourite Fairy Hugs Stamps releases! But then I say that about every new release 😁😁😁

Also, remember that our challenges go live on the first Thursday of each month on our Facebook group.   All you have to do is to create a "Magical" project and upload the pic to our challenge album.  There is a $15.00 prize for one lucky crafter!

Fairy Stamper ~ New Year's Party

  Happy New Year crafting friends and welcome to my Fairy Stamper Friday Share.

You're invited to the New Year's Bash at Pinecone Manor.

What a wonderful way to ring in the New Year.

Come join us, one an all!

This was such a fun card to design :-) I used a pre printed background paper and stamped all my elements. I placed them in such a way, that there was no masking required.

To continue the party theme on the inside, I computer printed the greeting and stamped the little Drummer Snowman again.

I used Glazed Pens to add colour to the house and the snowmen.  I used glitter on all of the fairies' wings and with my white Signo pen, I added the effect of snow to the house.  Lastly I stamped and heat embossed the fireworks.  You can see some of the dimension that all these different mediums added to the card.  Oops, I just realised that I forgot to put glitter on the wings of the fairy that is opening the door.  Need to go fix that :-)

As always, I have the list of supplies I used linked to the Fairy Stamper store, for your convenience.

Fairy Stamper ~ Santa Claus is coming to town ...

  Happy Friday crafting friends and welcome to my Fairy Stamper Friday Share.

There is a week left till Santa comes to town. Did you make the "Nice" list this year? Will he bring you lots of crafting goodness? I hope so and that you get everything on your wish list!
For my card today,  Santa is flying over the roof tops. I made a slimline card, using a premade background, to accommodate the height of the scene.  Lots of inking, stamping and fun in making this card :-)

I love this Christmas sentiment and since it is rather large, it fits beautifully on a slimline card.  I wasn't too happy that the sentiment alone made the inside look very blah, so I added a few snowy trees. This still leaves me plenty of space to write my personal message, but adds that something extra 😀

Now for the supplies used to make this card, most linked to the Fairy Stamper store, for your convenience.

Fairy Stamper Stamps ~ Roof Tops
Studio Light Stamps ~ Winter Charm
Frog's Whiskers Ink. Stamps ~ Snow Trio Trees, My Christmas
Designer Boutique Stamps ~ Above the Roof Tops
