Green and Gold or Yellow with the Emerald Faeries Garden Design Team

Good morning to you all in the land of blog

Today sees the next challenge at the


with a very special theme this time around to  
celebrate Australia Day on the 26th of Jan 

so the theme is
"Green & Gold/Yellow"


Now although I have some fabulous friends in Australia, I am a British girl at heart, so have created a Mother's Day Card, I know just a little early but this image just shouted out for it

I have used a gold mirror card for the base layer and contrast and some gorgeous Papermania capsule mono Verde collection papers.  The flowers in the main from Wild Orchid and the pearls from the Hobby House.  Some cheese cloth has been added for the faerie feel along with some butterflies with liquid pearl bodies.

The image has, as always been coloured in copics and is a combination of two digital images and some digital text.  A little sakuro clear glitter on her wings and just a touch of white gel pen for some very fine highlights.
The image is Kayla and Twinkie with the Whimsical log from Make it Crafty

I recently purchased this sentiment from Grimsby Crafts and thought it went so well with this


I would like to Thank all of my wonderful visitors, who take the time to leave such inspirational and kind comments on my work, which allows me to hop on over to visit you all in return.

I would like to remind you all that my 700 follower candy is now running and can be entered here
