The Fairy of Goodwill

Hi! Today I will show you, of my "Fairies Collection”, The Fairy of Goodwill. I like to think that the world would be a little better with a minimum of goodwill. I'm sure many of you agree with me. I guess Fairies can also spread this message:)

I made this card with a wonderful sketch of Fridays Sketch and I also include some details to make it good to enter it in other challenges. I printed the drawing 2 times and cut out by hand and carefully drawing that I used as second layer. I like to paint all layers of my drawings, because I believe that final result has a better look. One of the background layers was dry embossed and I highlighted it with a light coat of glossy acqua green color paint. I think it looks very nice. I used the same paint to the fairy dress. I painted the wings with glitter and the hearts coming out of her basket of flowers (and hearts) have a crystal clear finish.
I hope you like it!
