Hello! Good evening! I'm late again for my Fairy post today!!! Next time I'll get the time zone conversions right I promise!
Well today we are showcasing the last of Kristy's new Fairies (get yours HERE) and I must say this one is totally adorable, but then I say that about all of them! Head over to the Some Odd Girl blog to find out how you can win today's Mushroom fairy digi and check out the fabulous cards from the DT!
Here's mine:
I used a mix of paper from my stash, some October Afternoon, Crate Paper and I think My Little Shoebox. The Beautiful Day banner is a punch out piece from Pink Paisley. The ribbon and twine is from The Ribbon Girl and the cute little mushroom charm is from The Secret Garden on Da Wanda. The sentiment is a sticker from SRM.
I coloured the adorable Miss Mushroom Fairy with copics (see details below) and added Stickles to her wings. I'm trying to get more depth in my skin tones lately... it's so hard! I'm always worried I'm going to overdo it, and I'm having a bit of trouble with my paper not accepting all the layers of ink. I think it might be time to do a bit of paper research. I have some Cryogen on its way to me and I quite like X-Press it. I will have to do a side by side comparison. I also realised after I had already coloured her shroom hat that I had chosen the light source coming from a difficult direction, so I struggled a bit with her nose...
Here's a close-up:
Here are the copics I used:

Oh, this is just sooo cute! I love this fairy and your papers are just perfect for her. That mushroom charms is adorable too.
She is too cute! I love the colours I used on her. I always like doing lots and lots of layers and I think the best paper I have found is either the nina or the make it crafty. The rest just don't hold the ink as well as I would like :) Hope that helps at all!
cool, a mushroom girl. I like it.
