For Fun Challenges you to Layout!

This week at For Fun Challenges, we challenge you to create a layout...a scrapbook page!  Our sponsor this week owner/designer Sylvia Zet, and her adorable collection of Wee Stamps .... what fabulous images!  To top it all, the winner of our challenge will receive 3 images of their choice... Oooh... I don't envy the winner's task of choosing only 3!

So here is my creation for you... a layout/page featuring my gorgeously delightful  Great Niece (my niece's daughter)... she is almost 2 years old, and already demanding sole use of the skype camera! She wants to be star of the show, so I'm showing my star....

Ingredients used: Cardstock - DCWV (Blossoms & Butterflies stack), Core'dinations Vintage; Markers - Marvy Le Plume; Rub-on sentiment - Kaisercraft;  Acrylic 3D Flowers; Pearls...

I took the 6x8" photo and sanded around the edges.... I smeared and orange marker along where I had sanded, then buffed it off.  Then, followed with a purple marker, but not to the same depth.  This made the transition of white photo to purple CS easier... then after I added the flowers, I thought pearls would be really buff, so I added those too.  I took the rub-on sentiment and added it to the photo... after fixing the photo to the basepage, I realised I had printed and coloured the image too large for the photo choice.  So instead of starting again, I removed Silver Fairy's wings, and fixed them again (more closely),  and fixed her to the page, with flat DS tape, and foam tape... she has a lot of dimension! The picture doesn't show it, but the page base is glitter embossed... just gorgeous (I love DCWV stacks)!

Oh, how did I colour the fairy? I used a water pen with markers for her clothes, and the water pen with glitter pens for her wings... to get a water coloured effect.  Her hair is ProMarker Aqua, and skin is Marvy Le Plume.  More glitter pens detail her clothes....
