It's been a long time since I made an ATC but I was inspired by the free image over at the Conjuror of Dreams FB challenge this month. That challenge used to e for just tags but now they've changed it to tags, ATCs, cards, whatever. I adore this "New Beginnings" fairy.
The image was pre-colored but I love coloring my own images so I printed her in light grayscale, then colored her with a combination of pencils blended with gamsol (the fairy), water colors (the background & sky), and used gel pens for highlights. I cut the pointed-window shape (I don't know the correct architectural term for that window shape but they are really common in old Gothic era churches), and laid it onto a plain, white ATC. I inked the edges and called it finished.

Thanks for playing along with us at AAA Cards with your stunning fairy image
A great idea to print the image in grayscale and then use your pencils for coloring.
