SHOPPING OUR STASH #270 - Fairies and Angels



Hello all, and welcome! This week at SHOPPING OUR STASH, we challenge you to use fairies or angels on your card or project. Since I have a slew of fairy images, that's what I went with:


 here is the inside:

I've had this digi for a while, but it's the first I've colored her. I had everything colored except her dress, and was trying to decide what color to go with. Either red or green would be too overpowering, I thought. I considered gold. Then my hubby came into my craft room and suggested sapphire. (face palm) Sometimes the hubby is sooooo brilliant! LOL! Here's a close up, showing the Stickles on the wings, the flower centers, and the berries on the arm band.



Now it's your turn to play along at Shopping Our Stash! It's couldn't be easier: use a fairy or angel image and link it up! For more inspiration, check out what my teammates, and our September Guest Designer, Jennifer, have created for your viewing pleasure! Don't forget to leave them some bloggy lovin! Remember, we are looking for a Guest Designer for October. If you wish to be considered, simply add a "DT" after your name when you link up! Easy peasy!

Thanks for visiting, and I hope you have a great day!

  1. Well Chris, your hubby was right, the color of this gorgeous Fairy is lovely and so is she. This magical images always make me wish they would indeed exist and that I would be lucky enough to see one.
    I absolutely love the beautiful frame you used for your sweet Fairy, the inside of your card is fabulous too, that punch is awesome.
    Thank you for sharing,
    Big Hugs,
    Maria.
