I stamped the image with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and then stamped the wings again on vellum cardstock. I paper pieced her wings, her tiny (!) arms on top and then her little leotard. I wanted the wings to stand out a bit so bent them gently and then added some tiny specks of glitter to the edges. The paper is Basic Grey Oh Baby Girl Lilly. The Open Scallop Border Die-namic from MFT was perfect and I added some TE Tiny Twinkles 'cause a girls gotta have her bling! A prima flower with a Mulberry mini rose in the center was perfect for the flower. When I was colouring her shoes and tights I realized the copics I had were too dark so I used the 0 copic to erase/lighten some of the colour. That copic is a must-have!
I'm so happy with this card - it turned out exactly the way I imagined it. Don't you love when that happens? :)
