Michelle did a fantastic job with that adorable pinwheel image, right? Well here the pinwheel is incorporated with one of the latest fairies, Kat! Isn't she adorable...what do you think she is wishing for? Do you wish when blowing on a pinwheel...now I am not sure. Looks fun, none-the-less. So I stamped her in Black Stazon ink on Very Vanilla cardstock. I watercolored her with markers and an aquabrush...gives a slightly different look because the edges of each section are bolder due to the markers. Makes me think about how I used to color when I was younger!
She was cut out with Oval Nestabilities and matted on a scalloped oval. She is topping a special box that I made for a special friend. Some of the design team members did a secret sis exchange and this box and the necklace inside (see below) went to my big Sis (Hi Big Sis!). The pattern paper on each side of the box is Kitchen Spice Allspice by Bo Bunny. Then I finished it off with some Bazzill Basics rhinestones and some chocolate taffeta ribbon.
So now you are to head over Christi T's Blog and see what amazing thing she has created with the kit released this month. Oh wait you also need to collect my letter, so here you go:
