Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Challenge # 11 & Sneak Peek...Let the Fairy in you Fly!


Hello Krafty friends! Well I hope that you are all actually reading this because it is a scheduled post and I don't have much luck with getting them to work right! Today is Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Challenge day and the oh so krafty, Michele, would like to see us paper piece something on our kreation...a little or a lot, it's up to you!
OK, so are you totally dieing to know who this stunning fairy is and where and when you can get your inky paws on her!? Well, this is Bird Fairy illustrated by the fabulous Crissy Armstrong and she comes with this fabulous sentiment too. it's one the new stamps for the upcoming release on Sunday January 10th. So, Kimmie has so kindly agreed to let the Krafty Girls give you an early sneak peek at the new stamps! Well, isn't Bird Fairy just gorgeous!? I absolutely love, love, love her and just wait for you to see all the other gorgeous new stamps!

For my card I paper pieced the dress, ribbons and the wee bird (that was Hannah's idea and I'm so glad I took her advice, smile). I added lots of Glamour Dust to her gorgeous wings too! I coloured the rest of Bird Fairy with my Copics and used this yummy paper that I'm totally crazy about...it's BoBunny and I think it's called Persuasion.
Well, I hope you can join us for this fun challenge this week over at the Kraftin' Kimmie Challenge Blog!


Thanks for stopping by and having a wee peek!
Hugs,

    Thanks for all the inspiration
