Back and White with sparkle

I really like this fairy image from Lavinia - they can be seen as a couple, as two good friends or siblings - which means the possibilities for occasions are many.
I masked their wings before using the Fairy dandelion stamps and the Hanging lanterns. To minimize the white space I used my often used script stamp.
I used black glitter paper to die cut a frame for the scene and also to bring some sparkle to this black and white design.
I left out a sentiment on the front to keep the card suitable for any occasion it might be needed for.

This card is also:

    Love the black and white as it highlights the beautiful images so well. The shimmer frame is subtle but just adds to it perfectly. Zoe x

    Oh, Pia, this is absolutely gorgeous! What a serene, enchantingly lovely work of art you have created here. I feel like it would make for a perfect image on the last page (or back cover) of a book about fairy tales or other types of fantasy-centred stories.
