Crafts and Me #10 + Cute Card Thursday #124

Good evening peeps hope you are well? I've not had a lot of time for crafting these last few days due to getting the house ready for decorating and today we went to get the wallpaper for our bedroom, I chose cream paper with luvly poppies on it....whilst I was there I got myself some more free samples...just big enough to use on a cards or two each piece,lol ~~ anywayz on to tonight's card, this is my entry into the two following challenges..................
1) Crafts & Me #10 ~ purple & green
2) Cute Card Thursday #124 ~ Whateva! .... must be honest, I'm not overly happy with the end result...especially the colouring on her wings,I used Spica's... they are really glittery but not showing up so not sure I'll use them again :o(



Products used
Image... Sugar Nellie ~ Woodland Fairy
Medium... Promarkers & Copic ' At you' Spica glitter pens & a bit of glamour dust
Papers... Kanban & free with craft mag
Flowers... From Hobbycraft... wild Orchid leaves
small flower gems from stash


A close up of the little beauty...see what I mean about her wings :o(
