Sugar Nellie Fairy Cake

This was totally unplanned because I made the two cards weeks apart, but today's card has some striking similarities to the card I posted on Sunday night....
  • They both feature adorable Sugar Nellie Fairy Glen images. 
  • They use the same paper (I think it was even from the same sheet of reversible 12" cardstock).  
  • The sentiments on both are banner shaped and in the top left corner. 
  • Lastly, I meant to pop some pearls on each, but forgot on both versions!
Weird huh?

Anyhoo, today's project is to support the new challenge at the Sugar Bowl.  I've kept the design really simple to showcase the pretty fairy.  She's one of my new ones and I think this is her first inking.

There's a generous splashing of Wink of Stella to give her wings some sparkle, but it's so hard to photograph.  It is there though, honest!

Hmm, I wonder why I am hankering for a slice of coffee sponge cake right now!  :0)




Card Recipe:
I've been inspired by:
  • Simon's Monday Challenge - Treats (I hope cake counts. It does in my book at least!)
  • Simon's Wednesday Challenge - Anything Goes
  • Sister Act Challenge - Anything Goes
Happy crafting
