pixie poppet – Mel

Hello there! I’m still introducing the new Sprite & Pixie Poppets from ClarityCrafts, so today let’s welcome Mel, another of the Pixies. She’s definitely getting ready for Christmas with the holly round her hat and her presents wrapped, so I’m going to share her with Peace on Earth

I went for a bit of a different look on this one, starting with one of my inky mop-up backgrounds. I stamped Mel in the centre with clear ink, heat embossed her with WOW’s superfine white powder and then shaded her in with purple & green Pergaliner pencils – they worked really well against the inky background. I filled in her star and snowball with a white gel pen and lightly shaded her wings with a white pencil. I rubbed a green pencil below her to so she looked like she was sitting on the ground.

I decided to sit her in a snowstorm , so sprinkled WOW’s ultra high white powder across the top of the card, then heated it with the heat gun from underneath the card (if you try & heat from the top, all the powder will just blow off!!) I edged the topper with a black Sharpie, used a square embedder to create a frame on a 5×5 card blank and attached the topper in the centre. I finished with a black micron pen to dot her eyes in – she looked a little odd with white dots!

Bit of a different style from my other poppet cards – what do you think?
