Lemon Shortbread Challenge - Tuesday 27 March 2018

 Welcome to another challenge over at the Lemon Shortbread Challenge Blog.

The challenge this fortnight is "anything goes".
 For my arch shaped card I have used the Lemon Shortbread image called "Relaxing Flower Fairy".    I have coloured the image in with Promarkers and added Stickles glitter glue to her wings.

I have used an arch shaped set of dies I got for Christmas.  I used the largest die to cut the card shaped and used some backing papers from my friend Lozzy to cut the next arch layer.  I added some pleated washi tape down the left hand side.  I then cut the next layer using the image and had to cut around the wings and kept them the other side of the die or she'd have had her wings shopped off - poor little fairy!!  I then pricked holes around the image and used two pieces of embroidery thread to stitch around the image.

I have finished the card off simply as it needs to be posted and added some punched flowers from the backing papers and a die-cut sentiment.

Promarkers used: 

Face/skin - Saffron, Spice and Oatmeal 
Hair - Saffron, Vanilla and Cocoa
Dress/shoes - China Blue, Cobalt Blue and Cornflower
Flowers/headband - Orchid, Amethyst, Aubergine and Purple
Leaves - Forest Green and Lush Green.
