Cute Christmas Fairy for Cute Card Thursday!

This is my entry for Cute Card thursday this week. I was also going to enter it for papertake weekly but I missed the boat! Oh well!

The image is Christmas Fairy Maggie from Sugar Nellie! I coloured her in festive christmas colours with my whispers pens. The sketch is based on a sketch from last weeks secret crafter challenge (which again I didn't enter as I misread the rules, you were supposed to use the colours pink and brown!). I added glitter to her wings and wand for extra sparkle. The background paper is from last years dovecraft pack matted onto red CS. I cut out all the circle shapes with my nesties and embossed the red CS circle with the swiss dots folder. The sentiment is from a See D's christmas set. The ribbon is Dovecraft and the 'legless brads' are from craft work cards and I attached them with 3D foam!

Not really 100% sure about this one, think it's the LO! Not overly keen, but I am still going to give it to my neice for christmas! :-)

Hugs, Vicky x
