This week's color and sketch challenge are the perfect combination for me. Love the colors Karen chose and Ally's cute sketch.
I stamped the fairy and colored with alcohol markers and colored pencils. Fussy cut around the wings and feet and die cut with a cloud shape. Stamped cursive text on vellum and cloud. Stamped love on the small cloud and mounted on ribbon. Added die cut trim to bottom of card to complete. TFL!
Edit: Posting a card past my bedtime isn't a great idea for me! My bg was from my stash and created by dropping alcohol ink and blending solution on the felt applicator and repeatedly tamping it on the vellum. Sorry for any attempts you made to spray water on alcohol ink drops on your craft mat!! It might work with alcohol spray if you were fast enough.

Love your dreamy background and your beautifully colored fairy. I'm off to see what I can make with your alcohol ink, spritzed with water on the craft mat with vellum technique.

Beautiful card. Terrific use of the colors from that amazing background to coloring the fantastic fairy image. Terrific out-of-the-box die-cutting. Wonderful take on the sketch with the cloud shapes and the ribbon. Excellent job. Well done. TFS
