Catch A Swiss Pixie

And all the day you will have good luck :)

Good Morning All, today I have a Pixie for you and this is the Lovely Gretel, what a cutey. She is matched with the My Mind's Eye Bloom and Grow papers and the stamp and papers may have fallen into my basket at Quixotic Paperie -Tee Hee!

I thought that I would enter this into the Copic Creations Challenge this week which is all about Brunette hair colouring. But I do have a confession to make, I'm still building my Copic pens collection so I use both Copics and Promarkers to colour - please don't shoot me for my sin. LOL!

I've also coloured the wings with some yummy Shimmerz paints Angel Wings, Sunflower and Fire Engine Red. Quixotic Paperie is going to be supplying Shimmerz soon, how exciting is that? Oh and don't forget that the Impression Obsession and Shimmerz Swap is still running.



Materials:
Stamp - CC Designs Gretel; Woodware Sentiment
Ink - VersaFine Onyx Black
Colouring - Copic; Promarkers; Shimmerz paints
Papers - MME Bloom and Grow
Usual Suspects - Paper Trimmer; Double-sided tape; Silicone glue
Other - White gel pen
