This is for Kia's lovely CAS challenge "Wing It". I hope this Unity Stamp Co stamp ticks the boxes...her wings are butterfly wings (and it is one of my favourite stamps).
I hope this qualifies for CAS. I usually throw everything but the kitchen sink at cards, so by my standards this is very clean and simple.
The background was done by smacking distress ink pads onto aluminium foil, squirting on a truck load of water, then dunking an A4 sheet of cardstock into the inky puddle.
Before doing the circle stencil thing, I cut the coloured sheet into various sized panels. I cut a 4" square for this card.
The butterfly dancer was coloured with distress inks and an aqua pen, her skin was done with the "peach" coloured gellato and an aqua pen.
Have a terrific week everyone and thanks so much for looking.

Love your CAS card - knew it was one of yours at first glance with one of your delightful signature fairies. She looks to me like she is dancing in the moonlight.
