Home Sweet Fairy Hive

Our little foragers are returning home after a long day...


The background for this card was created by rolling a couple different colors of Elements Inks onto a gel plate. I then flicked a few diluted Brushos Color Crystals onto the inked plate. Then press a piece of glossy cardstock into the inks. Using glossy cardstock creates a different look than using plain cardstock.


After the inks had dried I stamped with a variety of Lavinia images using VersaFine Clair Nocturne. Please note that when using VFC on glossy cardstock it will take a long time to dry naturally. If you don't let it dry completely it will smudge.  After the inks had dried I trimmed the panel and applied more inks to the edges and let dry.

To finish off the card I added Fairy Hugs Powder glitter to the hills, hive, lantern and seeds on the vines. You can never go wrong with an extra bit of sparkle.


 And there you have it...
Hope you all have a lovely day!
