Fairy in the Garden

Here's wishing you all a Happy Easter, with good family times and maybe a little chocolate!  I thought I could squeeze a quick post in today, with a card I made a few weeks back.  We will be heading out shortly, to one of my daughter's......we've not been there since Christmas, with all of the issues my hubby's been having.  I'm looking forward to a wonderful day!


This delightful little image is from Victoria Case, and her name is Garden Fairy Katie.  I'll be looking for her in my garden soon, when it gets just a wee bit warmer.  She's been coloured with copics and pencils, then cut out with my Nestie die.  I've paired her up with some Wild Rose Studio papers, and a flower from Fred She Said.   A ribbon bow, a die cut swirl, and a sentiment from Whimsey Stamps provide the finishing touches.....nice and bright and sunny....just like today!
