Fairy Heartfelt

Heartfelt Fairy (3)

Morning all! It’s Tuesday and that means one thing…… Tiddly Tuesday. Hurrah! Over at the Tiddly Inks Challenge Blog we want to see your Tiddly makes using  ‘Fairies’.

I love fairies so much I spent an age deciding which image to use. Christy has so many wonderful fairies in her shop you’ll be spoilt for choice too. This is my make using Fairy Heartfelt:

Heartfelt Fairy (2)

I have had this paper in my stash a while, but haven’t used it until now. Truth be told I was a little disappointed with it, as the printing on the cover of the paper stack is a lot crisper than on the paper inside. Although the softer look seems to work well with this image, as I coloured it no-lines.

Heartfelt Fairy (1)

  • Image: Fairy Heartfelt   by Tiddly Inks
  • Colouring Medium: Copics
  • Card: Orange Card, Black Card and Copic X-Press It Blending Card
