Mushroom Fairies

Happy Friday!
Sami has done it again!  Another absolutely adorable release to share with you today called Mushroom Fairies, and I just love them!

Of course, I've put together 2 cards for this release because I can ever just choose 1 of her images...lol :)
This first card features Mushroom Talk:
Now...I struggled a little bit getting this card put together on Wednesday.  I just got home from a nice 2 week vacation with my dad and of course I got sick on the way home...so I've been under the weather all week.  My mojo just wasn't working with the little bit of energy I did have...but I gave it my best shot.

I tried to keep it relatively simple overall.  The image is colored in with my pencils and I used some light blue chalk around the edges along with some clear stickles.  I got this awesome set of butterfly dies for Christmas last year and have been itching to use them on something.  So I pulled them out for this card, but I'm not quite sure they fit very well...

The final touches were liquid pearls around the edges and for the butterfly centers and a sweet sentiment.

I'd like to enter this "Thanks" card into the following challenges:
    Creative Fingers #24-Anything Goes
    Deconstructed Sketch #138
    Word Art Wednesday #120-Anything Goes

My next card uses My Favorite Spot:
I was feeling quite a bit better when I made this card on Thursday, and was a bit ambitious with my design.  I wanted this sweet image to be under a night sky, like she was pondering the moon.  So I cut out a circle and positioned it on my paper and then used my Stampin Up ink pads to create a night sky.  I splattered some gold mist onto the sky to represent stars, but I didn't realize that the alcohol would push the ink...but it still looks pretty cool :)

I colored in my image with my pencils and paper pieced the circles on the mushroom.  Then cut it all out and layered everything together on my card.  The little sentiment tag has also been misted with the gold so it's super shimmery, but it's hard to see in the picture.  A few pearls in the corners and it was done!

I'd like to enter this card into the following challenges:
    Color Me Creative #87-Anything Goes
    Crafting When We Can #63-Lots of Bling
    Mojo Monday #333
    Nutcrafters #62-Ribbon & Bling
