Fairy wishes
Hello, my friends,
The Cardologists believe chocolate is necessary for the creative process. Needless to say a lot of M&Ms went into this project. The card took over my whole afternoon. It started as a simple small card but then it called to be switched around and made into a buckle. (The actual card went through several metamorphosis until ending up as a gray card with embossed swirls distressed with blue.)
The fairy stamp is a Penny Black stamp. I stamped her twice and popped up the head and star. I stamped the wings twice with Staz-On on acetate, and cut them out, leaving a tab to slip into the slit I made along her dress.
It wasn't going to be a Christmas card either but when I went looking through my stash I found this sentiment that fit perfectly.
Spellbinders Labels Twenty-two formed the "buckle" and framed the sentiments from two different Stampin' Up sets, one retired, one Petite Pairs.
Thank you for visiting today.

This is gorgeous! The shimmer, the acetate wings, the card fold! It was worth every M&M!
