Hi everyone! Thanks for stopping by my blog. Today I am sharing my creation for Art Impressions Surprise Challenge. For more information on this challenge check out the announcement here. My project features the new Fairy Critter Cubbies stamp set and the Scrapbook.com Exclusive Daisy stamp set to build this whimsical woodland scene. Scroll to the bottom of this post to see the Surprise challenge rules. This project is featured on the Ai blog today, check it out here!
First I colored the fairy house from the Fairy Critter Cubbies stamp set with my Copic Markers and die cut the image with the coordinating die. I used a wide variety of browns and greens through out the tree house image. Most of the background scene I sketched out by hand and colored with my Copic markers. I used G20’s for the tall grass and the E40’s for the ground. Before I attached the fairy house onto the card I stamped the daisies from the Scrapbook.com Exclusive Daisy set to look like random wild flowers. I used W’s and Y20’s to color the daisies.
Next, I used pastel shades of the color wheel to color the fairy dresses and I gave them all unique hair colors. I placed the fairies as if they were popping out of the tree house. As you open the front door there is a SURPRISE fairy to greet you! To finish the card I used scraps of coordinating wildflower cardstock to matte the scene onto the front of the card.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today. Check back next week for more Art Impressions inspiration!
