A Pixie Well Done

This is a card that I made for my Neice (she is actually almost my only person who ever actually receives a handmade card from me!!)
She had just performed in her first ever Ballet Production so I wanted to congratulate her :) Sorry the picture is a bit dark ... the close up is a bit better...

I love these little Swiss Pixies from CC Designs (even more so now that you can buy some of them as Digistamps!! so you don't have to wait for delivery!! hooray)

I can't remember where the papers are from I'm afraid because they were in my stash but the inside of the card has been done in Photoshop with a digital scrapbooking kit that I bought from here... http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/scripts/homepage.asp


She's coloured with Copics and to add a bit of extra 'bling' I coloured her boots, part of her top and her wings with Copic Spica pens... which I LOVE and which were worth every penny !!! :)



I wasn't really sure about this card to be honest, just wasn't pleased with it but my neice wasn't anywhere near as critical :) and I still think it was nicer to give her something I'd agonised over than something mass produced from a shop !!
Thanks for visiting...
