With Sympathy Sunflower Fairy - SNS

Hi everyone! 

Todays share is a Sympathy card I coloured using the digital images 'Sunflower Fairy', and scene builders images from Sweet November Stamps 


The scene has been put together in a Word document by Wrapping the images and then overlaying. Then after printing I coloured the images with the Cool, Ice and Warm Promarker sets. I used a white gel pen to add the sparkle effect to the wings. 

I then mounted the image onto white card and placed on a black and white flower backing paper on a    6 x 4 card 

I hope you like it!

Hi everyone! 

Sharing on my blog today a card I coloured up using the digital images 'Kisa' and 'Regen' from Sweet November Stamps 


I have also used the 'Digital Stamp - Tree House Fun: Background Builder - Kids Tree House and the wall from the 'Digital Stamp - Scene Builder: Castle' 

These png. images were all cut and pasted into a Word document, I cropped any part of the image that was not needed and wrapped so that they could be moved around to create the scene.
