Decoupaged flower fairy card

Hello everyone

Well still trying to get through all my little jobs but progress is slow.  I managed to sneak in another card though.  I was tidying up in the craft room and somehow managed to find a sheet of Flower Fairies die cut decoupage in the bottom of a drawer - can't remember why I decided to root around in the drawer in the first place but I had obviously managed to get side-tracked.  Well, I mean, it doesn't take very long to press out some decoupage pieces and layer them all up and I thought that I could put them away once they had dried and they would be ready for a card once I had time to start crafting again properly.  So once they were dry I thought, well, it needn't take long to just make one teeny tiny little card.  So here it is folks


The entire card, with the exception of the decoupaged fairy, is made from Centura Pearl snow white card.  The card base and the central mat were cut on my Cameo (I had previously cut them and put them to one side for future use!)  The swirly bits were cut using a Cheery Lyn die and I added some extra dimension by using a couple of embossing folders.  This is the first time that I have tried white on white and actually been happy with the result.  Hope you all like it too.

Thank you for visiting my blog.

  5. Such a beautiful card, Catherine. It is good when something is done in advance even nicer if you were not expecting to find it!!. Having cut some cards and made a bunch of die cuts in advance saved my sanity this week as not able to do too much but put some prepped things together. Vee xx

  6. This is a beautiful card Catherine, I love it.......Know what you mean though, I sometimes walk into my craft room while in the middle of doing something else, then sit down for a second, and end up making a card (or 2)......far more interesting than housework :) x
