Happy Friday! I’m home this weekend. With all of the traveling I’ve been doing it seems a little strange. 🙂
After many inquiries, I want to give you an update regarding my husband Russ’ health. He is doing so much better. Although he still has an irregular heart beat, his heart rate is where it should be. He is being treated with medication for now to try to straighten things out. Thank you again for keeping him in your thoughts. I just think his heart beats faster when I’m around, lol. 🙂
Now back to business. Today’s tutorial is quite girly with all the pink and I have been dying to use the Little Bit of Magic set. So here is my little scene with it.

On a 3″ x 5.5″ piece of Whisper White stamped the fairy by first loading my stamp with Versamark and then with Basic Black ink before stamping it.
Heat embossed the image using clear embossing powder and a heat gun.
Masked over the fairy with a 2.25″ card stock circle. I cut the circle using my Circle Scissors.
Holding the mask in place, sponged Marina Mist ink on the card stock.
Sponged Not Quite Navy ink on, not covering the Marina Mist ink entirely.
Sponged Night of Navy at the top of the card stock.
Removed the mask.
On a separate piece of Whisper White card stock, stamped the rose by first loading my stamp with Versamark and then Melon Mambo ink before stamping it. Heat embossed the rose using clear embossing powder and a heat gun.
Colored in the Rose using a Pink Pirouette marker.
Added Pretty in Pink marker.
Added Regal Rose Marker.
Cut the rose out.
Added Pink Pirouette Marker to the Fairy and her flower.
Added Pretty in Pink marker to the folds of her dress and the center of the flower.
Added a bit of Regal Rose marker to the darkest areas.
Colored her collar and hair in with a So Saffron Marker.
Added Certainly Celery marker to the tips of her collar.
Stamped the fairy dust with Whisper White ink. Added just a dot of Old Olive ink to the tips of her collar.
Assembled the card front by adding Old Olive, Marina Mist and Not Quite Navy card stock panels. Added Pretty in Pink ribbon and Scribbles Swirls Die cuts from Old Olive card stock. Cut the Scribbles Swirls Dies using my Big Shot Machine.
Sponged Old Olive ink at the bottom of the card front.
Sponged Not Quite Navy ink at the top of the card front and finished assembling the card.
Here it is finished measuring 5″ x 6.5″.
May your weekend be absolutely Magical.
Until my next post. . . . . .
Hugs,
Michelle
