{From Another World} SFYTT & Wild Flower Patch

Hi everyone,

this here is the first post I have for you today...I've been a busy stamper lately {grin} I guess I'm making up for my lack of posts in June. :)

Soo let's see what's going on today shall we?
Jen not only has another fun sketch for us she also has another fabulous sponsor lined up for you guys this week: Wild Flower Patch Stamps!!
They are a mostly-digi stamp company with lots of cute images.
Play with us - using Jen's sketch of course, upload it to Jen's Blog and you just may be the winner of a fabulous prize!!

I'm featuring the cute fairy Iris and I thought how fun would it be to create a card that had an older, mystic feel to it kinda like Peter Pan - the movie. :) I colored her in using Colored Pencils and a little Gamsol and then I embellished and glittered with Distress Stickles.

As far as the papers go - I used a page from the Petite Pages pack by Webster's Pages (wow say that five times fast) and I used one of Tim Holtz' techniques to die the paper so it matches my KC journal strips. Basically I laid out my non-stick stamping surface, took some distress ink and stamped it on that, sprayed that with water and then rolled my paper in it, heat set it, then roll it again until I was happy with the way it looked.

For the ribbon treatment I simple took this gold border sticker by Jolee's Boutique and stuck it on the edges of my twill band. Easy enough no?
