Using a New Release from August over at Paper Nest Dolls called "Christmas Fairy Ellie" , I'm asking that you all join in our monthly challenge! You too could win a prize from the extensive digital library that our resident artist, Christine, brings to us each month! 
I haven't made a 5x7 card in a long time but I didn't want to make her smaller-she's so gorgeous I wanted to show her all off. I usually use card blanks for my base, but this time it was a shimmery cardstock for the base. Picturing a golden angel, I used plum for an accent color. The plum berries have a "frost" of clear Wink of Stella" as does her wings. after coloring her coat and dress ruffle, I used some gold WOS for that highlight and for the bells on her toes. I also added some "fur" around her coat collar and edges by using some white flower soft. The snowfall she is standing in is flower soft but I added some Shaved Ice to it from Frantage/Stampendous. Hope the mini fringe I put on the side looks like snowballs! On the inside, I used the Ornament Background paper along with a KKS Christmas stamp. I'm so happy that designers are all putting out their Christmas goodies-helps a working gal get her cards done early!Please come and participate in our Challenge and get inspired like we all do when we see your creations! Come back real soon!
