Fairy Party in the Park

There is something so magical about fairies , Tinkerbelle was always one of my favourite characters so when ever I use the Fairie die from the Backyard Charms I fashion them in her image. For this card I made a fairy party in the park and decided to make them all a little different from each other.

All the fun is in the reveal, to see this card in action please check out my FACEBOOK page, feel free to join if you would like to share your own crafty creations. You can also see a video of this card on my INSTAGRAM page.

1A- cut the cardbase from a bright blue cardstock as shown

B- cut 3 white panels as shown. 2 for the inside 1 for the front.

C- cut 1 light blue square and 1 green square and a strip of grass from the Nature Edges as shown

D-assemble all the panels as shown

2A- diecut a Garden Bench from white cardstock, and Street Lantern from silver, and the glass is vellum

B- add the garden bench (Karen has a video tutorial on the product page at the link ⬆️ ) and the lantern. I just glued the lantern to the card back. I did not glue to the arms.

3A- I cut 4 flower pots from the Garden Charms and I dug out some flowers that I had cut previously, they are from the Backyard Charms, Twist Flower and the Fun Flowers. I added shading with a Versa Mark Marker, and highlights with a white Gelly Roll pen

B- I adhered the yellow flowers as shown. The white flowers will be hung from the lantern.

I want the white flowers to look like they were hanging.

4A- I cut about 2 inches of silver cord and attached it to a small strip of cardstock as shown. I made 2.

B- I hooked the silver cord over the arms of the lantern and glue down as shown.

C- add the white flower pots as shown.

To give the fairies the multi coloured look I had to cut them several times.

5A- using the Fairy die from the Backyard Charms I cut the bodies from a skin colour, the wings from vellum, the dress area from the different colours (yellow, pink, green, purple, and blue) and the heads from the yellow and different browns for the hair.

B- trim the sections as shown and assemble the fairies, I cut the legs off the yellow and green fairies and changed the angle so they look like they are sitting.
