StampFairy Challenge - A Sketch

Good morning, I hope that you have all had a wonderful weekend. I am now getting back on track in terms of my crafting and I have caught up on the projects that I needed to finish. One of those projects is my DT card for the StampFariy challenge that starts today.  This week Gerda has designed another fabulous sketch for us to use.



For my card today I am using a new favorite of mine from the Stamp Fairy family.  If you have not already met him, I would like to introduce you to Barry.


This card is just loaded with sparkle. I have coloured up Barry to co-ordinate with this great papers from MME which already have loads of sparkle to them but I have accented the image with some stickles for the snowballs. . As I wanted to make use of my Drippy Goo punch to create some wintry icicles I have chosen to rotate the sketch by 90 degrees. I tucked an extra element in the form of the circle behind my image for yet some more sparkle and shine and if that weren't enough bling I have finished off the card with a snowflake that was diecut from various shimmery papers and topped it off with a sparkly centre.

I hope that you will stop by the StampFairy challenge blog for a look at all of the other gorgeous creations from the rest of the team. Then I look forward to seeing your lovely creations. Thanks for stopping by.

This card will be entered into the following challenges:

I love your card Carissa, the little dribble of snow on the punch at the bottom is great. Lovely image too and those snowflake layers are really pretty. Love it.

ps I've just seen that you've entered the TTT challenge - good luck, I'm on the DT there too so thought I should thank you for entering while I'm here!
