May Blog Blitz: Large Nimble Faerie
by Jinny Newlin
Welcome to the weekend, y’all! It’s Jinny here this morning, sharing a few new goodies from our May 2017 Release. Enjoy!
I started this card by watercoloring a scrap of watercolor paper, moving from left to right, in a rainbow of shades. Once it was dry, I spritzed over it with Pearl mist for a little shimmer and shine and die-cut our new Floribunda Collage florals out of it. I then backed it with a piece of white cardstock and anchored a split panel of white, glitter paper to either side of it with white-threaded, straight, machine stitches. More white-threaded, straight, machine stitches secure a vertical strip of vellum, which was white-embossed with the “THANK YOU fairy MUCH” sentiment from our new Fairy Greetings stamp set.
A length of white string was then wrapped, vertically, around the prepped piece, between the connection of the vellum strip and everything else and tied, in a bow, near the top edge of the prepped piece, before the latter was popped off the surface of the white, cardstock, card face with foam tape.
I then die-cut our new Large Nimble Faerie from white cardstock; popped her body up with foam tape; and applied three shades of glitter to her wings, before adhering them to her back. A sprinkling of clear, sequin blossoms completes the look.
Be sure to stop back by every day through next Sunday, May 21, 2017, to see what my talented teammies have cooked up, using all the newly-released goodies, just for your viewing pleasure.

I love the fairies, but I am having a hard time figuring out their sizes. How tall are the fairies and how wide is the wing span? In the description it gives the size of each wing? Or the two wings together? They are beautiful but do not know how to calculate my project? Thanks.
Love the background sadwitched between the white. The new fairy is fabulous.
