Fairy Tag for Reflections challenge

Happy Monday to all!  I didn't have too many chances to craft this weekend.  However, I wanted to share a Fairy Tag I made for a challenge last week and even though the winner was picked by random, I was excited to win! :)  So this tag was a real challenge for me! Lol  I have had a few of these large Fairy stamps for some time now and was always intimidated to color them up.  But the theme was "Reflections" and I really thought the Fairy looking at her reflection in the water fit this theme well.  The coloring was the hardest part. I think I used all the shades of green I had and tried to do a lot of blending and shading.  After her wings were colored, I added some stickles in "Diamond" to them and I thought they came out really shimmery.  I added my image to a large tag I've had in my stash for some time.  I covered it with papers from "Huckleberry Pond" by Paper Loft.  I cut out the stamped image using my spellbinder rectangles die cut and then added some iridescent beading around the image. The small brown butterfly, brown flowers and green acrylic flower are from Karla S001 on Etsy.  I added the trim, fibers and the beautiful Fairy charm from my stash.  Thanks for stopping by and have a great week! :)
