Fairy Card

It's the second week of the "Land of Fantasy" Challenge over at The Cheerful Stamp Pad and for my DT submission, I used the "Lilly the Fairy of Enchantment" digi.  I decided that she should be very shimmery and sparkley so I used the LuminArte Twinkling H2Os to color her dress and headpiece.  I used Distress Inks to color her hair, body and the moon.  To get the extra shimmery wings, I painted them with Adirondack Metallics Pearl Paint.  Once everything was dry, I went over the dress and headpiece details with Stickles and Liquid Pearls.  On the wings, I swiped a nice coat of Frosted Lace Stickles.  The picture below doesn't do justice to just how sparkley the image is.
To make the card, I sprayed the designer paper base with multiple coats of pearlized water.  I fussy cut the image out and attached with a glue stick.  I added a shimmery gray organza ribbon to the bottom of the card and centered on that was the sentiment that I accented with more DI and Stickles.
