For this card, I wanted to create something that was both magical and slightly mysterious.
I started by stamping Some Odd Girl's Fairy Magic in Memento tuxedo black ink. I then colored her in with Copics and added a few highlight spots with a white gel pen. I was experimenting with brighter colors, and I really like how everything turned out.
For the rest of the card, I chose darker papers that would make the fairy pop. I used the two largest Sizzix Fancy Labels frames to create a center panel. The larger frame was cut from the same cardstock as the card base, and the smaller frame was cut from Crate Paper Maggie Holmes paper.
As a final touch, I added a few pearls to two right corners.
