Birthday Fairy by Karen Day

Hello Ai fans!

I have a shaker card to share today... this is Birthday Fairy Set (Sku #4730) from the latest release on the Ai website!

 This set comes with the fairy image, and a separate stamp of just her skirt, which I've cut out using the matching die (also included in the set!) and popped up with an Action Wobble.  Also in the set are the sentiment stamp, and a wand & it's die - which I decided not to use on my card.  I actually intended to cut off the edge of the large circle where it spills over the edge of the card, but I kind of liked the look of it just the way it is.  Here you can see her skirt that wobbles:

 Copics used: E11, E00, E000, R20, YG05, YG03, YG01, YG00, BV04, BV02, BV01, BV00, R85, R83, R81, C5, C3, C1, C00, Y26, Y23, Y21.

It's a FAIRY birthday by Kerry

Hello hello Ai friends and happy Monday!

Is your birthday coming up?  This month or the next?  Don't matter!  This adorable Birthday Fairy will be there partying with you...  dancing the day away and doing a little boogie, hehe!  

I wanted to create a fun background for the fairy.  I found a star stencil from my stash, I used distress ink in twisted citron and applied the color with a blending tool.   For the adorable birthday fairy, I colored her with Copic markers and of course, I added on some glimmer by using a wink of stella glitter brush pen.  

Hope I send you some happiness and don't forget to do a happy dance today!

Copic markers:  C0, C1, C3, C5, BG11, BG13, B0000, BG23, E000, E00, E11, R20, RV13, RV14, RV21, YG0000, YG00, YG01, YG23

If you look carefully you can see that her skirt is "popped" up and you can see it WOBBLE in the video below.

I put the cute verse on the inside.
