The ADFD theme for Challenge #126 is Newsprint. I dug in my stash and pulled out at stack from SU! for the background and the flowers. PTI's Good Times stamp set is used for the pink on the right side. (I can tell I will get a lot of use out of this stamp - love it!!) The word bubble die cut is from WPlus9. A pixie needs glitter, so the leaf part of her dress is Stickled.Aside from the beautiful lines and sweetness of the illustrations, one of the things I have loved about ADFD images is each one I have colored has stretched my skills in a new way. This one is no exception. Unsatisfied with my attempts at coloring her top like a hat, I decided to take try it as hair and was much happier with the results. I also worked at where the light would hit her dress. When I worked on the card in iPhoto, it seemed that the right spot was a little off and too big. Note to self - let photo editing help with highlights and shading!!
