Colourfull fairy....

Today I am showing you one of the gorgeouss colouring pages of Emilie Jarridge or also known as the artist Sakuems.  This image is from the Fantasy Mix Advanced Digital Colouring book.

One of the benefits of having a digital colouring book is that, like digital images you can print it out at any size that you want and need.

As for me personally I love colouringbooks but I totally hate it that they are always HUGE as I get easily bored if I would have to start colouring on an a4 or A5 size image. So I printed mine out around 8 to 9 cm. width as that is my favourite size of images.

And I coloured her with Spectrum Noir alcohol markers and enhanced with Colourblend pencils.

I used the gorgeouss Crafter's Companion Beatrice die for my card :)

Happy birthday.....

Whooohooo exiting news for me today as I am asked to join the marvelous dt of Crafts & Me.....

doing the happy dance here as Teresa is carrying soo many gorgeouss stamps...

You can view the Crafts & Me blog where the dr shows off their gorgeouss work and there is a challenge as well....

So for my first card I picked this beautifull stamp from Emily Luella called Spring Faerie Greyscale.

I made a stair card and added loads of stitching around the borders of the papers and the Spring Faerie. 

I do not use a sewing machine but do it all by hand. If it is for long straight lines I use a stainless steel ruler and a needle tool and then handstitch all the stitches. But like with the stamp I use swirly lines and you just pinch these with the needle tool wherever you want around the edges.
All the dies used are from Tattered Lace Dies.

I coloured the Spring Faerie with Spectrum Noir markers and enhanced her with Colourblend pencils and white molotow marker for the white dots.

I hope you enjoyed watching my first card for Crafts & Me.
