When I first saw this stamp I knew I had to have it. I love the fairy's curves and more mature style. So I colored her with Promarkers and gave her grey hair.
I added glossy accent to the rose in her hair and the martini glass and used WoS on her wings, which is almost impossible to capture in a photo.
I was inspired by the sketch over at Sunday Stamps for the layout and the colors of CYCI. I embossed light yellow card stock and used a strip of DP with spots (Kaisercraft). Stamped the sentiment that comes with the image, added the fairy onto a die cut stitched circle and decorated with 3 grey enamel dots.
This card is for:
Sunday Stamps - #132 Sketch
Can You Case It - #131
Cards in Envy - Wings

Oh, I have never seen an "old girly" fairy... She is so sweet and fun!! :D The grey hair with the rose made me smile. :D And the fun sentiment is just perfect for this stamp!
