FBW #130

Today's challenge at my Flutter By Wednesday Challenge is to create a window card with a butterfly, fairy or angel. Be sure to check out my flutter by team, links on the sidebar, to see their fabulous creations!!

I used these directions on SCS for a Tent Card to create my project for today. 

I did this project a bit different than my normal process as I picked out my papers first which I rarely do. I wanted to use my fun Cosmo Cricket Pixie-Licious (discounted right now!) though so I thought I'd try working backwards from my normal process. 


I used my nestabilities to cut the window and make the frame. I must admit, this was way easier than I thought it would be. Using my scor-tape really made it easy too! If you haven't tried this tape yet, you should. Really easy to use and a strong hold.


For my image I used an image from The Greeting Farm, Fairy Eva. She's so sweet. I colored her with copics and paper pieced her skirt. To finish the card I added some doodles with my American Crafts white pen and then added some of my favorite Petaloo Dazzlers (discounted right now). Ohh, and then I sparkled Fairy Eva up with some stickles and stardust pens!
