Spring Fairy

I did manage to make a card for today and using the the challenge on Cute Card Thursday for Spring for my inspiration. Ok this image was coloured and I was pleased to see she's holding a daffoldil so spring it was. I love this adorable fairy from Stampavie bit worried about her knobbly knees.
Disappointed in my layering looking back now I should of layered her underskirt last but it was the first time of using I will know for next time.
The papers are My Minds Eye and the lace which I brought for 35p a metre, much better price than the lace I usually use although not as good as quality but I didn't mind how much I used to pleating round the oval. The flowers are a new punch, which has a couple on and a leaf, quite a lot of wastage to make the flowers I have done.

We had a lovely afternoon tea at Elvetham Hotel in Fleet, we were so lucky with the weather, the sun came out all afternoon. We were also entertained by the Wedding party, checking out some of the outfits.
Then a fabulous day at MJ's crop, didn't get much done but pleased we've want I did. Somehow I've got to make a card today or you won't get to see one tomorrow.
