Teacup Fairy


Here is a card I made today with a beautiful digital stamp from Cowgirlup, found here: http://cowgirlupdigitalstampenranch.com/. It was just perfect for some challenges that I found today:

1. Splitcoaststampers Inspiration Challenge - IC236 - found here: http://http//www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=494495 to find inspiration here: http://http//roses-and-teacups.com/teaware.php;

2. Color Challenge at Crazy4Challenges - C4C41 - found here: http://crazy4challenges.blogspot.com/2010/06/crazy4challenges-c4c41.html; and

3. Sketch Challenge at Taylored Expressions - TESC117 - found here: http://tayloredexpressions.blogspot.com/2010/06/taylored-expressions-sketch-challenge_11.html.

I watercolored the cute little fairy, masked the cookie and stamped and heat embossed the rose stamp onto the cup, and added glossy accents to the cup to make it look like porcelain...and it really does!!!...getting so I love that stuff!
