By now, I'm sure some of you are wondering -- does this woman ever stamp anything? And the answer is, not nearly as much as I used to. But, when I heard that this week's Teapot Party theme was wind, I immediately thought of this old stamp. I got her unmounted, a long time ago, and no longer remember who made her.
I started by stamping her with black pigment ink on white cardstock. Then I embossed her with black powder, so the ink wouldn't run when I colored her. Normally, I use her as an Autumn image, but I wanted to make a more seasonal card. So I paired her with a piece of floral paper from Graphic 45's "Fairy Wings" collection.
Then, trying to match the colors on the paper, I colored her with markers. Because I wasn't quite sure what was going on with her dress/cape, I just did patches of color, and tried to blend them a little without making the colors muddy.
After the coloring dried, I used an oval die to cut her out, and a slightly larger one to make a light green frame around her. Then I assembled everything on a light green cardbase. Finally, as a finishing touch, I added the flower gems and the "Believe" sticker in the top right corner.
