Needed A Quick Birthday Card

Ever in need of a quick card? As many as I make I still don't have enough or at least a nice one for who I need it for. I once again found myself needing one for a female and seem to have only manly ones on hand so I made this one from the left over paper I just used for a layout. I am on a scrap kick lately and I am trying to use my scrap paper. I thought this one was so light and pretty it would be nice a spring-like as well as a nice background for this fairy. It is another Sweet Pea Stamp colored with Copics. I must admit, I am lost to what color a snail is but I figure in a world where there are fairies, snails can be any color.

Another Sweet Pea Stamp Used

Isn't this image so cute? I really love these stamps. I left all greetings/sentiments out so I have an option to use this card for any occasion. I used my Copics to color it and when I first looked at it, I thought she should be green. It may be that she reminds me of the Dryad in a book I am reading now and the Dryad is green....at least her hair is. I felt she should have light colored hair so I did her skin green instead. I thought it fits her with her pointed ears.

Sweet Pea Stamps

I made this card for Card Lifters where we lifted Regena 6124.Regena did a beautiful card that was embossed with flowers on the bottom and some gems on it. I lifted her colors of orange and yellow, the flowers on the bottom (in my case it is the bottom of the image), the gems, and the embossed background.

I am so disappointed that you can not see this card for real. It don't look like much in this scan but I used H2Os on top of the Copics. You wouldn't believe how beautiful it looks with all that shimmer. The flowers on the bottom shine yellow where the sun hits it, the leaves green, and she totally shimmers, even her skin!.(Her wings shine purple). It is really something but the scan can't capture that....such a shame.
