Before I post my card for today, I just want to say that I have not forgotten any of you. If I have not been posting any comments lately it is because I am having a very difficult time posting anything. For whatever reason, my interenet connection has slowed down to turtle pace. This inspite of Shaw upgrading my service to a higher speed connection. It took me 45 minutes just to upload my card today at Splitcoast Stampers. Not sure if this is computer problems or internet connection problems. Once, I get this fixed I promise to comment on those lovely cards and projects.

Card I am posting today is for the Featured Stampers Challenge over at Splitcoast Stampers. Today's featured stamper is Stacy (TWINSHAPPY). Congratulations Stacy, amazing gallery.

Continuing, with my sneak peeks of the Fairyland Stamp set that will be available after the Winter CHA, here is the card I made for that challenge.

I first stamped the cute fairy on white cs with Tuxedo Black Memento ink and colored it with Copic markers. Next, I masked the fairy and stamped the mushroom underneath. Mushroom was also colored with Copic markers. Then I proceeded to stamp the grass and flowers at the bottom of my scene. Also stamped the vines from the same stamp set and masked portions that I did not want to overlap. Background clouds were done by die cutting an oval scallop and sponging outward around the edges of the scallops. Used a corner punch and sponged all around the edges of the border. This was matted onto a DP from the Classic Paper Design of Crafty Secrets that was also sponged on the edges. Added ribbon and tag with sentiment made from stamps from the same stamp set.

Hope you ar all enjoying these peeks into the new sets that will be coming out soon. Also, do check out the galleries of the rest of the Crafty Secrets Design Team. They too, are starting to post some of the samples using the rest of the sets that will be released for the CHA.
