Now you should have hopped here from Ivana's Blog if you are already hopping - but the fun all stars at The Craft's Meow Blog if you've just dropped in here with a cuppa. And while you're at the TCM blog check out the full reveal of these fabulous sets and Sarah's card kits
For my card I've chosen to use the faux silk technique which involves stamping your image onto tissue paper. This also meant I could orientate the fabulous fairy image the other way around as the ink soaks through to the other side - I think she suited my layout better this way! And if you know me you know I can't let a colouring opportunity go to waste - LOL. So out came my son's Derwent pencils to add some more interest to her wings - I also popped a little fairy dust on them too! The GORGEOUS DP is from Pink Paislee and is one of the papers Lisa has in stock instore - I'm sooo glad she had already cut it for me as I'm not sure I would have had the strength - LOL.
EDIT - click HERE for the link to the Faux Silk Tutorial I used - I apologise for not adding it sooner.

Oooh... Debbie! You are on fire girl! Three gorgeous projects. I don't know if I can choose a favourite, they're all so brilliant!!!

The first thing I noticed is the flipped image. How clever are you?? (I believe I may have made that observation before sometime hmmmm??) I love the coloured wings too. The Nestie is the perfect shape to deal with the wing isn't it?? I need to get me some more vintage like DP's (as if I need more DP!!! LOL) Stunning card darl. ooxx
So how did you flip the image? I love the colors you chose and the paper is wonderful! Really pretty card!
wow! what nice coloring you did on that silhouette! Your card is lovely!
Loving those buttefly-coloured wings! And now to find out about stamping on tissue paper....Beautiful card.

Gorgeous! Love what you've done to her wings!
This is stunning! I love that image and that paper is fabulous! I know what you mean about the paper, sometimes it is so hard to cut into something so beautiful, then I just hoarde it, lol!
BEAUTIFUL! Love the way you colored the stamp and added glitter! Great background paper and those hearts are so cute!
I love that no matter what you make the image flow into the background as though it was always there! I am a fan!
So sweet and pretty!
Beautiful card.
There are so many things I like about this card...the colors, the added dust to the wings, the positive and negative images of the heart arranged together, the lace. awesome card
Your card is so beautiful. Yellow is my favorite colors, and this one is done well! Love your fairy and all the pretty elements you used, Debbie! Such a wonderful group of stamp sets!
