This month we have no sponsor so it means I get to play with images I already have :D
I've got quite a few printed, as I was looking through I found this image called Violet Pixie from Sarah Burrier (sadly no longer available from what I can tell). The shape of her wings made me thing about the sketch flipped on its side.
I coloured her with Copics and then had a chat with Sandra about my "way outness" for the sketch LOL! We decided it was good because the sketch is the inspiration and it gives a different perspective on what can be done.
So..... this is our sketch for the month which I've flipped on its side. The wings are the banner and I've got her a moon as well for the circle.
I decided to fussy cut the image because I wasn't happy with a single layer card which is what I was going with at first. I found the "moon" which is a geli plate print I did ages ago, using inks and a flower stencil (I so need to get my geli plate back out again).
As I was shuffling through papers I just sat her and the "moon" onto a sheet of black paper. She was so striking on this I couldn't get any design papers that has the same effect. So I made my own star background by scattering embossing enamel onto the black card.
I have selected on pice of green design paper from Lemoncraft to go with the greeny theme. Finally I added a sentiment to the moon using stickers form Tim Holtz.
I so love how this came out :D
Thanks for popping by today, we hope to see you at the challenge.
