A 'Sneak Peek' and my bit of news!!

Here we are with another Lili of the Valley Sneak Peek and this little cutie is called 'Birthday Fairy' available from the 11th January.
Now my little bit of news - I can't tell you how gobsmacked I was when Jacqui (Cats Whiskers) emailed me and asked would I like to be on the Company Design Team for Lili of the Valley - if she'd been in the room she would have  had her hand bitten  off. 
I was both honoured and thrilled to be asked, if not overwhelmed by the uber-talented DT's I get to work along side - just pop across HERE and see the list - eeeeeeeeeeeeek!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I managed to get a better photograph - I looked through the lens with my other eye - it's definitely the right one that's wonky!! Just wish I could find some bulbs for my light tent.
I coloured my Birthday Fairy with Copics, the papers are by Donna at Bearly Mine, the sentiment is Lili of the Valley and the corner stamp is from an Illusive Images set. The flowers are Wild Orchid and the beautiful pearl cluster was from my adorable friend America, everything else is from my stash.


Right I shall be back tomorrow as the 'Mousies' are back from their Christmas Holidays with something special!!!
