Birthday Card for my Little Princess

Today is my Darling Daughter's 6th Birthday. She is a real girly girl and loves anything to do with fairies, princesses pink etc. You know the type. I like to make really special cards for my children's birthdays and this was to be no exception. Dana said she wanted a fairy card and since Stampin' Up! don't have any fairy stamps in the NZ catalogue I was a bit stumped. And then I remembered the lovely set I shared with you a few posts ago - Pretty Princess. I decided to make the cute Princess into a fairy. I stamped some butterflies from the Time Well Spent set onto vellum cardstock in Stazon ink. Carefully cut them out making sure to cut the head and feelers off and voila! - fairy wings! I stamped the Princess onto the Vellum cardstock as well. Coloured them using my Stampin' Write Markers. Glued the wings on the back with the Two Way Glue Pen, added a bit of Stampin' Glitter, and there you have a very sweet fairy!

I decided to make a garden scene with the fairies flying around some pretty flowers. Using a variety of flowers from Time Well Spent, I stamped onto cardstock in Stazon and coloured using ink pad lids and my aqua brush. I attached these to some of the die cut flowers from the Spring Mini with rhinestone brads and pearls from the Pretties Kit. I also coloured two of the smaller flowers from the Pretties Kit with my Markers - SO easy!
I made grass by snipping card with the Paper Snips and leaves and stalks from scraps of card.
