And I used a beautiful image from one of our sponsors - All Dressed up. Have a look at the wonderful images here: alldressedupstamps
I coloured the image with pencils, then sponged three shades of Distress Inks around the edges and spritzed with water, blotting to remove colour when it was how I wanted it. I masked the image then used a toothbrush to add gold acrylic paint speckle, and a spray of green mica mist. When it was all dry I stencilled some stars (stencil is made with a star punch). Lastly I brushed the wings & dress with clear Wink of Stella, and stars with Kindyglitz. Double sided tape strips on the side were covered with pastel lemon superfine glitter.
