All of those layers in the sketch seemed a bit intimidating at first, but once I picked my papers it was easy because they all came from the same line so coordinating wasn't a problem. I paper pieced her dress and the mushrooms from some of the DP. Her wings were stamped separately on vellum and coated in Stardust Stickles. I didn't have a sentiment small enough that said what I wanted so I just hand wrote my sentiment this time. I was so thrilled that the Sugraplum stump fit Ginger perfectly, too!The Details:
Stamps: Ginger (Sweet November), Sugarplums Stump (CC Designs) - both All That Scraps
Paper: My Minds Eye, Vellum, Chocolate Chip (SU), White (Paper Trey Ink)
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Walnut Distress Ink
Copics:
Skin: R00,E00,E11,R20
Hair and Stump: E21,E25,E27,E29
Clothes: YR00,YR14
Mushroom Stem: E50,E53,E55
Misc: Stardust Stickles. Brads (SU)

Traci this is gorgeous! There is NO way you ever had a problem with mojo, that is truly not possible. ;) I love the DP you used for the layers - just wonderful with all the colors and great image! Yay for Sidhe!!
We all have those "embarrassing" projects, I had one this weekend too that will remain safely hidden ;0)
This came out just perfect! I totally hadn't thought to use Ginger on the stump, that's a great idea. Beautiful card!
Traci, I have creations like that too, or I just it takes me sometimes a few days to complete it because I'm just not sure if I like what I did. Then I end up changing it 100 times. Or I just trash it and start over.
But, this is not one of those creations!! THis is just beauitful!! And I love that DP and of course that beautiful iamge!! I still have to get that image, she is just beautiful!!
Hugs:)

I can't imagine you ever making anything that would be embarrassing! The card is beautiful, love how you did the wings - they look perfectly fairy-like. What is it about fairies that is so appealing and alluring, I can never get enough of them.
Such a lovely card! I've been missing my mojo lately too.
Amazing card Traci!
Great colors and your coloering is awesome!

Hi Traci - I thought the same thing about the sketch... intimidating is the right word!
I had to tell myself to just start cutting up the paper!!! lol Whew, once I got past that stage it was much better! lol Love how you paper pieced her and the mushroom top...beautiful hair coloring...and very "real" looking wings...cool!

This is amazing Traci, looking at it makes it hard to believe that you were having problems with your mojo! Ginger is gorgeous with her paper pieced dress and it is so cool to see how perfect she looks on that stump! :)
Another gorgeous card and GORGEOUS color combo! Love it Traci!! The little 'hello' sentiment tab is too cute! Have a wonderful weekend!
Gorgeous card! LOVE all the paper-piecing you did!
I just love this!!!
You have gotta love Ginger :D I know she always puts a smile on my face too. I can not believe you were really creating cards that are as bad as you are making out we are always our own worse critics.
Hugs
