Fairies...

This acetate card with it's starry wrap is my contribution for the challenge at http://abc-challenge.blogspot.com/ where this week the theme is 'fairies'. The starry paper and vellum fairy are both from this month's Making Cards magazine.

I've made the card in the same way as yesterday's card but using a patterned paper in place of the embossed snowflakes. As before the inside of the card is also covered with the starry paper so that there are no nasty signs of DST. The fairy being made of vellum is double sided and is great for using in this way as the back looks as good as the front.

It was the theme at http://www.daringcardmakers.blogspot.com/ that first got me thinking about wraps around cards.

The challenge there is...

'It’s a Wrap
No, not the kind stuffed with Chicken & Cesar Salad or the woolly kind you put around your shoulders to keep you warm, mind you, the way our summer is going I think we could all do with one of those!I would like you to give your card a coat made of acetate, vellum or anything for that matter.As long as it ‘wraps’ around the outside of your card, anything goes!'

I suppose my cards are back to front as rather than the acetate being the wrap it actually makes up the main piece of the card but I'm sure that will be okay as the challenge does say 'anything goes'.

I've also just realised that I can enter this card for the challenge on the Joanna Sheen forum which this week is cards inspired by 'film titles'. My film title is 'FairyTale: A True Story'. My goodness ' a triple whammy'!!!
