Today I'm showing you Fairy Nadine.  I think this is my first fairy and my favorite part of it was doing her wings.  You can make them look so pretty with glitter!!

Although...OMG!!  I had her colored, which took me forever for some reason, then I decided to add color around her and when that didn't work I cut her out.  5 FREAKIN HOURS!!  WTH?!!  UGH!!  Anyway, I paired her up with the gorgeous Bo Bunny "Snowfall" papers and that incredible wooden star from Kaiser Craft.  I also stickled her wings but if you'd like a closer look just click on the picture.

If you do get a chance to head over to the TPS blog, leave a comment and be entered to win the whole winter set!!  These digi's go on sale on Nov. 18th (17th in US & Canada) and if you're quick you could get in on the monthly digi sale!!

Paper Sunday Challenge

Tickled Pink Stamps is sponsoring Paper Sundaes Challenge blog and I was lucky to be their guest designer for this challenge, which is...........[drum roll please]...........

Shabby Chic/Vintage!

So just to be clear, I looked up the meaning because I was really hoping this Lil Victorian Steampunk Lolita Lilith would qualify.   You can purchase her at Tickled Pink Stamps.  

"Shabby chic is a style of decoration that purposefully looks worn, vintage or antique. Sometimes the items are legitimately vintage, and other times, they are manufactured that way."

Ok YAY!!!  Cuz that's what I was going for here.  My favorite part about this card is that my sister wanted it....okay wait wait!!  ha ha ha!  No, it was the little tiles!!  I bought them at a scrapbook store and am sorry to say they had no manufacturer on them other then "Made in China".  I added some distressing and OMG they're cute!  And pretty much everything is Tim Holtz.  No addiction here.  LOL!

And don't you just love that gold combo?!  I colored her with Copics and the gold color is thanks to Suzanne Dean.  Y00, 11, 15, YR23 and she added YR24 but both my YR23 and YR24 are exactly the same.  I don't think that's right but whatever.

So please check out the challenge at Paper Sundaes this week and check out the design team too.  They are amazing!!  Thanks for having me as your GDT for this challenge!! 

I want to thank Angela from In My Quiet Time for the coloring inspiration.  She is absolutely AMAZING!!  THANKS AMY!
