House of Cards Sketch - Fairy Wish

I love a good sketch...you?


This month the challenge at House of Cards is this sketch:


I love the lines and how you can make this sketch CAS (Clean and Simple) or ramp it up and add lots of layers.

I decided on both...lots of little layers and simple lines. Using Lucky Wishes from A Day for Daisies (one of my most favorite digi stamp stores!) and a lacy punch and, of course, some gorgeous glitter this is my card...



Love the lacy layers and subtle texture! If this card wasn't already reserved for a special niece, I think it would be sitting on a shelf near my workbench; this fairy brings smiles.

Thanks for stopping by today. I hope you'll find time to stop by the House of Cards blog and see the other styles for this sketch.

Inky hugs,
Angi

    Love the fairy! Your view of the sketch is certainly interesting but it also works. It makes it look very soft with the lacey touch. Great job. Thanks also for the tip on the inks that I used and yes I use SU inks so guess I need to visit the craft store for more supplies, but then do we really need an excuse to visit the craft store. Keep on creating!
