I got both of these stamps (the fairy and the castle) from Faeiry Art Stamps. They were on sale and I CANNOT resist a good sale! So I bought them and then I stuffed them in a drawer. Well, I needed to break them out and do something wonderful with them and here is what I did! i colored everything with my copics and I added SHIMMERZ ALL over the place!I cut out the Fairy and popped her up with foam dots for dimension. I cut out the castle and mounted it on black, and then onto the green... but the green was lacking something! I KNOW... EMBOSSING! I got out my favorite swirl stamp and embossed it with gold EP and then I mounted my castle and fairy onto it. MUCH BETTER! I used my gel and glitter pens for highlights and detail. Let me tell you... this was A LOT of coloring and cutting... but well worth it! I love the way this turned out and it was really fun to do. My last name is Knight... so the castle and fairy thing really does it for me! I hope this one inspires you to get out the stamps that you shoed in a drawer and never did anything with! Look what I came up with!
