Winter Fairy

 Here we are, the first day in 2012 and I wish you all the best in this new year!  
My first post for 2012 is a Wee Stamp from Whimsy Stamps called Winter Fairy.  I adore these stamps - they are so sweet and pretty, each and every one of them.  I coloured the image with Copics and added Soft Flock to the fur on her jacket and boots plus some pink Soft Flock on the earmuffs.  The snow is Flower Soft and a little glamour dust is added to her wings.  The papers are from Bo Bunny's Snowfall collection and snowflakes were cut with Martha Stewart punches.  The sentiment is from Whimsy's Letter Seals set... I can't tell you enough how much I like their sentiments, so versatile and perfect for almost every ard!.  The hearts are a Whiff of Joy die cut and the pearls are from the stash.
Challenges:
Mark's Finest Papers - Use a snowflake
Stampin' for the Weekend - Anything Goes
Charisma Cardz - Anything Goes
Crimbo Crackers - Snowflakes
