Be Different with the Winter Wonderland Design Team

Good morning to you all in the land of blog
First of all I apologise for being MIA over the last couple of days, had my annual trip to the GA ward, but back to normal again now.

This is my second post of today, please scroll down for my Emerald Faerie Garden Design Team Creation.

Today sees the next challenge at the


I chose the theme this week, which is a thought provoking one

Be Different
Use an image for a different purpose

Now this could be a non Christmas image for a Christmas card or a Christmas image for a non Christmas card - hope you understood that bit, but if you hop over to the Challenge site you can see all of the amazing eye candy from the Design Team to inspire you further.

Here is what I created using two Christmas stamps one being the lovely Tilda and the other being a fir tree stamp.
I made a Prom Queen Card.

The base colour is cream with some gorgeous papers from the Hobby House creating a lovely pink and lime green contrast.  The lovely ribbon is from the Hobby House as are the little pearls.  The lace is from Grimsby Crafts as is the punch.  I have added a little charm and a doily all slightly airbrushed with the YG25.  Flowers are in the main from Wild Orchid which have also been airbrushed with R83
The image has been coloured with copics, and here is another close up of the pretty flowers with just a hint of glitter on them (stickles)

I would like to say thank you to all my amazing visitors, who take the time to leave some fabulous comments, without you blog land would not be the same.
THANK YOU!!

I would like to enter this little number into the following challenges

Hugs and enjoy the rest of your day
