We have had lovely sunny warm weather for quite a while now, but today there was no sun and it felt quite cold. In spite of this I spent all day working in the garden, and I could be quite stiff tomorrow. Never mind tomorrow – I had trouble walking upstairs to my craft room just now!!
I like lilac and I also like turquoise so I have put these 2 colours together on my card and I’m quite pleased with the combination. The fairy image is from Daisy and Friends at Christmas, a Joanna Sheen CD. Once again I have used my Kensington border, as obviously butterflies go with the wings theme – I knew when I bought that border I would be using it a lot.
What I used –
Image – fairy from Joanna Sheen CD – Daisy and Friends at Christmas – coloured with Promarkers, with wings glittered with Stickles star dust
Digi papers from my stash
Die – Kensington border from Memory Box
Ribbon from my stash. Dragonfly charm and pearls from the Ribbon Girl. Sentiment from LOTV

Hope you were not too stiff after your gardening, we have had some lovely weather over these last week or so but today it is very wet, windy and has gone quite cold again!! Enjoy your day.
