Faery Ink July Inspiration!

Hello Faery Ink fans! 

This month's inspirational is a little different than my normal creations. I'll explain why in a few. ;) 
For this months inspirational post, I decided to use the Amber Exotic Fowl from the New Release.
I hope that you will take a look at the Faery Ink Store and try your hand at any one of these amazing images.


So - this month I decided to use my colored pencils SOLELY to color this amazing image. I usually only use alcohol markers and very rarely use my pencils but this image inspired me to give it a whirl! I'm actually so pleased with the result! You can add so much more detail with pencils that you could absolutely NEVER get with markers. I will definitely be using these A LOT more often!
If you have been following my monthly inspirations, you have probably seen that I've been working my way though some Fancy Fold cards. This month however I just thought something simple would suit this image perfectly! I used a Tree stamp that I've had forever and stamped it a few times to create the background. I then used my paper to distresser to distress the background paper, and light blue paper - threw in some flowers and sentiment and VIOLA!
Supplies used to make this card:
Blue & Ivory Cardstock - Stash
Watercolor Paper - Canson
Rose Bud - Memento Dew Drop Inks
Toffee Crunch - Memento Dew Drop Inks
Tree Stamp - Stash (Freebie I picked up somewhere)
Pearls - Recollections
Paper Distresser - Tim Holtz
Flowers - Stash
Spectrum Noir Colored Pencils

 Thanks for stopping by today!
