Creat4fun and a 'Sneak Peek'

I've followed the fabulous sketch at Create4fun and my image is a Sneak Peek of one of the delightful images that will be released by Lili of the Valley images to be released in January. This one is called 'Together for Ever' as the sentiment suggests, there are some absolutely adorable 'Little Fairies' along with the beautiful Molly Harrison fairies and some fabulous inspirational sentiments.


I can't tell you how thrilling it was to create something other than a Christmas card - although I suspect you're all feeling the same way by now. Enough of the white stuff, ice and icicles outside - don't need it in here.
It was a sheer delight to colour this gorgeous image, I used Copics and cut out the image with Spellbinders curved rectangles. The lemon papers is from Bearly Mine Designer Vol III and the blue from Donna's Vintage download collection. The patterned paper is Basic Grey's Lilykate. The leaves and flowers are all cut with Crealies dies and the sentiment cut with Spellbinder heart nesties.
I've actually decorated the inside but such a lousy dark photograph I didn't bother. This one and my New Year's resolution (when we get there is to have each card totally finished and ready for the off, box made as well if necessary - wonder how long that one will last before time gets the better of me again!!
Another resolution is to search out some bulbs for my light tent!!
