Fairy Dahlia - put your sunglasses on!

Happy Friday everyone and I hope you have had a good week! It's been a long one for me while I wrap up on projects in readiness to start my new job next Tuesday.  So apologies for not visiting you all as much as I usually do - normal service will hopefully resume in a couple of week's time!

So today I'm here with a card using more of my favourite Quixotic Paperie goodies!  Today I am here with a card I made using the gorgeous Make It Crafty Fairy Dahlia....






As with all Make It Crafty images, she was such a pleasure to colour in!  And have you seen the new goodies in store?  I used newbie My Minds Eye Indie Chic Saffron papers, lightly distressed and inked using the Ranger Archival Ink Pad in Jet Black.  The sentiment is from the Paper Makeup Every Day sentiment set and the sweet butterflies are from  the Whimsy Raindrop Echo Friendship Ticket Sentiment set.

Okay, that's it from me today!  Before you go, don't forget to check out all the new stash Elaine has uploaded to the store this week!
