Lili of the Valley for Friday Sketchers and Cute Card Thursday

I've been somewhat bogged down this week with sorting out my jumbled up computer files and moving them over to an external hard drive (managed about half of them so far) and, trying to keep up and get ahead with my DT work. I reached the point when my brain was mashed and I could do no more so I decide to make a card just because I wanted to!!


It would seem you're all loving the new images from Lili of the Valley - hardly surprising as they are all so gorgeous - I know I can't leave them alone.


This is one of the  images I've not used as yet - she is a Molly Harrison fairy called Gwen - she is so beautiful and an absolute delight to colour.
As she is holding a stalk of lavender I just had to colour her using the Blue Violet coloured Copics.
The papers are Pink Petticoat, the flowers Prima - lightly coloured with BV31 and the panel is cut with a Martha Stewart deep edge punch.
The sentiment is one from the new Lili of the Valley fabulous 'Inspirational Sentiments' set. The green leaves and ribbon are from my stash and the lavender ones cut with a Woodware punch.


I followed the sketch at Friday Sketchers and Cute Card Thursday are asking for monochrome so I will enter this card into these challenges.

Right I shall get back to the DT work now I've had a pleasant refreshing break.
