A Sugar Fairy for the Bowl

Today I worked on my entry for tomorrow's Sugar Bowl using Manga Fairy.  She has been coloured with Lyra pencils and then given some sparkle with US Artquest Mica paints and Stampin' Up! dazzling diamonds.  After embossing the background cardstock, I coloured the raised images with the mica paints.  The stars and decorations on the trees have been glittered with dazzling diamonds.


I love this paper by My Mind's Eye however if it did have any zig zag patterns, I obviously didn't pick it up.  So, I created my own!  It was interesting matching up the stripes but I was pleased with the final results.  The inside was kept fairly simple with dry embossing across the top edge of the writing space and ric rac and paper which matched the front.
