Fairytale



Hi everyone and Happy Monday :) I hope your week is off to a great start. I haven't done a fairytale themed card in quite some time so I decided to put one together. The castle is actually a digital image from In Style Stamps. I printed it out several times so I could cut and layer the castle. The princess and unicorn are from High Hopes Rubber stamps. I inked them both with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink, stamped them onto PTI cardstock, colored them with copics, and cut them out. I added Diamond Stickles to the unicorn's horn and Gold and Pink Stickles to the princess's crown. I then created my card base (5 1/2 by 5 1/2) out of SU's Barely Banana. I layered Pretty in Pink on top of that followed by my design paper from K & Co. I then adhered my castle image to my cardstock and to the card base with dimensionals. I adhered my princess to the unicorn with dimensionals and then adhered the unicorn to the card base with dimensionals. For some finishing touches, I added Shimmerz to the flags on the castle and Primas. What do you think?

Note: I have gotten a few questions about how to "follow" my blog. To make it easier, I have added a "followers" option on my sidebar. I'd love it if you'd like to follow my blog. I'd love to know who is stopping by and I'd love to visit your blogs as well :)

Well, that's it from me today. I hope you all have a wonderful day. I'll be back tomorrow with another project.

Big Hugs, Christine :)
