Home Sweet Home...

Well, this is exciting, an extra post from me on a Wednesday!

What's that all about then...?

Well, shhhhh don't tell anyone but today is a special release day for some beautiful new digis from Sherri Ann Baldy.
All of Sherri's gorgeous designs can be found 
or

My card is made with image 789-2, an adorable fairy house.

I have coloured this sweet image with copics and used Glossy Accents on the roof and Stickles on the windows to add some magic and sparkle!

I then fussy cut (eeeeek!) the image and mounted it on a night sky background I had made with my Copic Air System.

(Flipping mad here or what! - fussy cutting, masking and air brushing are all new techniques to me!  Good job I like a challenge)!

I added some gold Stickles as stars and a polka dot die cut frame.  Finally I added my current favourite sentiments, chitchat stickers by Tim Holtz.

...and here we are a cute fairy house, vacant possession of course (-; ...

You have made this exactly what a fairy house should be...utterly enchanting :-) Fussy cutting, airbrushing and masking are all a mystery to me...ok, I fussy cut very occasionally and then remember that I have no patience for it! But you have used all those techniques to such amazing effect to create this magical scene and the spotty frame is just the most wonderful icing on the cake :-)
Can I please be a fairy and go and live in this house?!
Big hugs Kat xx
