Frosty Winter Kisses

Welcome to Flutter By Wednesday # 205.  This week's challenge is to create a card or project using your favorite color - and to include a butterfly or fairy of course.  This week we are also being sponsored by Paper Makeup Stamps so there is a chance to win a $15 gift certificate to their store!  For all of the challenge information please go to the Flutter By Wednesday blog and while you are there don't forget to check out all of the wonderful projects my FBW teammates created!!
I chose to use PMS Hayden Fairy for my card and my favorite winter color right now is purple so I colored her with shades of purple colored pencils (blended with baby oil and blending stumps) and Spica Glitter pens.  I used a Snowflake Cuttlebug embossing folder to "frame" Hayden and matted that panel with some purple cardstock.  The sentiment comes with the digital image and I cut it out with the PaperTrey Double Ended Banner die and adhered it with a foam square.  I finished off the image by applying Stickles Frosted Lace to the wings. 
Thanks for coming by!

  6. This is so pretty!! My daughter loves purple too. :) I'm ignoring that this is a winter card as I "need" to get busy and make some but keep getting sidetracked. LOL!! Fabulous job, Harriet!
