Skewy Scan

Today I made a birthday card for someone at the Stamp Club I go to (Victoria Stampers) who is 80 this coming weekend. I don't know what kind of images she likes but suspect cute and flowers will be the sort of thing.

I stamped this fairy, which I really do like, and cut her out after I had shaded her in and coloured her wings with Twinkling H20's. Then I mounted some pink paper on another piece of card and tore a hole just off centre. Edged it in gold Krylon pen and put some glitter on it (very subtle).

I stamped some tiny fairies on both sides of the card, painted them with Twinkling H20's as well and put some dots of glitter around them. Then I put the verse on and added some Prima type flowers.
The "holey" main part of the card stands off the folded card with sticky pads and the fairy is stuck into the hole kind of "in relief".

Sorry the scan is a bit wonky but it is late and I have been making other cards (in various stages of completion) but I so wanted to get this one uploaded. Hopefully more tomorrow.
