Pixie Dust

Hi, today's it's my turn to post a card on Craft-Dee BowZ since each member of our team gets a 'Tuesday" and guess what...this is my week! I love the images from Lili of the Valley and got this stamp a while back and just now getting a chance to color her.

I colored this sweet fairy with Copics and added my favorite glitter, Warm Glitter Ritz, to her wings. I took some white 3-D paint and made some dots and sprinkled glitter over them, too, since she's sprinkling her fairy dust around!

This is two double looped bows with the smaller one slid inside the know of the larger one. It came out superb and on the first try, too!  My bow tool is one of my most precious card making tools and it guarantees me perfect bows every time. This beautiful sheer ribbon tied perfectly...thank you, Donna, for the beautiful ribbon each month!

Since my card is posted on the last Tuesday of the month and it's April 24, you have just a few more days to add your card to the Craft-Dee BowZ challenge this month!  Our challenge is ANYTHING GOES AND ADD A HANDMADE BOW.  Have you seen my teammates' cards/projects on the previous Tuesdays?  Take a look here and please leave a comment if you have a moment.

Fairy Wishes

Welcome to a new month and a new challenge at Craft-Dee BowZ where the challenge is always ANYTHING GOES AND ADD A HANDMADE BOW!  I made a card using this beautiful image from Cute As A Button named Pixie Fairy.

I colored her with Copics and used some clear iridescent glitter for her fairy dust and around my sentiment which I used a layered circle punch and a scalloped die cut. My sequins, jewel swirl and epoxy dots are from my stash.

My triple looped bow was made with my Craft-Dee BowZ tool.  What an easy time to make a bow with this little tool!  Do you use bows on your cards or projects? If you do, this will save you ribbon and the most precious commodity...your time!  Such an easy little tool to use and get awesome bows every time.

Our sponsor is Cute as a Button. Have you seen the adorable digital images by this fabulous artist, Francesca, of Cute as a Button?

The random prize awarded to one lucky person is 3 single images of the winner's choice!

This is a month long challenge at Craft-Dee BowZ and I hope you'll join us.  Remember, each Tuesday there is another post to inspire and delight you, so please stop back next week!
