Make a Wish

Hi all and welcome to day 5 of MFT Teaser Time.  Today, I am granting you a wish with the new à la modes stamp set, Genie.  She is super cool and sexy cute in her sheer genie pants, holding her genie lamp, and wearing her hair in a genie-esque pony tail.  


I know I have mentioned this before, but I have an aversion to gold.  I felt like her lamp and pony tail holder should be gold, but I couldn't make myself do it.  LOL  So, I colored them "goldfish" in mustard and brown tones, and added some highlight glitter to the top of the genie lamp for some added pizazz.  I chose this patterned paper because of the rich purple tones.  For me, Genie = purple.  LOL 



The sentiment was stamped on the Mini File Tab Die-namics.  I used the Fringed Perennial Die-namics to create the flower and I just LOVE the detail.  It's so dimensional and COOL.  It's a must-have for any flower lover.  :)   


I drew in the "winter grass" with my Prismacolor pencils.



I wanted the sheerness of her genie pants to come across, so I first colored her legs normally, then went over them with my Copic V91 real quick to add the light purple tint.  Then, I covered her bottoms with Copic Spica Clear Glitter Pen.  It's a little hard to tell, but on the sections of her pants that intersect, I colored them in slightly darker, to show the "depth" of the layered material.



Here are the dies I used for today's card:
