Hi Everyone! Here is my card for my second week as Guest Designer over at Lili of the Valley. The theme this week is 'Red, Gold and Green' and as it sounded Christmassy I thought I would challenge myself to make something summery lol!! I decided to make my fairies bounce so attached them onto strips of acetate. I added the sentiment and paper (which I hand stitched around) and my OH suggested that I should add lots of flowers to make it look like they were fairies at the bottom of the garden (he's always full of good ideas!!) The giant flowers were from my friend Kate (thanks Kate I love them!!)
Here is another photo so you can see the bouncing fairies!! Dylan calls them bouncing bats, I guess little boys prefer bats to fairies!! Talking of Dylan, it's his 3rd birthday tomorrow so myself, Dylan and his dad are going to a Wacky Warehouse style place so he can let off some energy! I'm not sure if they'll let you take photos in this day and age, but if they do I'll be back later tomorrow with them!!Love Becky xx
