Fairy Sparkle Snow Globe

It's that time again - The first of the month means a new challenge on the Claritystamp Challenge Blog. Congratulations to the winner and top 5 of last month's "Anything Goes" challenge. It was great to see such variety. This month's theme is "Feminine".

Over a year and half ago I made a snow globe for one of my Claritystamp samples. Hubby thought it was tacky and I joked that I would make him one for Christmas. Well I did. It has a photo of me and Maya in the snow inside it and has been sat on the bookcase in the guest room ever since. When I had a problem with my original project for this month I saw it sat there and thought that I could make something feminine to go inside it.


This is what I made. I do love that little fairy stamp. I think they're probably meant to be stood on the ground but I always put them in the air (it's fairy magic).

The water has evaporated a bit over time but it still works.


I created the little scene using brightly coloured Adirondack inks, then just popped it in the globe (it was bought in Hobbycraft). 


It looks so magical when you shake it.

An added bonus is that I now have what I was missing for my original project and it's finished and ready to go for next month (luckily it fits both themes). I do feel organised!

The stamps used in my fairy scene are all available at Claritystamp

I hope you like my take on "Feminine". I look forward to seeing what you all come up with.
