For You

Hello there!  Hope you are all doing very well!  It's time once again for a new Lili's Little Fairies Challenge .. this week it is "Transport".  Yes .. "Transport".  I know it's self explanatory, now that I REALIZE what it is .. lol!  I swear the Lili Girls must've thought I was nuts when I asked, "What do you mean by transport?"  OMG ... haha!!!  But I asked if fairy wings would be considered as transport .. and luckily yes yes yes it is!  haha!

So here's my little fairy with her transporting wings ... (smile):

I tried shading her dress a lot darker black than I normally do and I gained that inspiration from my dear friend Dena!  I love her work!  And although my colouring is no where near her scope of work ... I enjoyed trying this!  Thank you Dena!!!

Papers:  MME
Medium:  Distress Inks

And I would love to enter my card into:
Simon Says Stamp:  April Showers Bring Spring Flowers

I hope you'll come on over and join us at Lili's Little Fairies!  We are generously sponsored by the wonderful Ribbon Girl once again!

Before you head on out, our roses are starting to bloom all over now and I was so happy I had enough to fill a pitcher:

Gosh I thank my hubby for having such a great green thumb!  :)

Thanks so much for visiting me .. I love it when you do!  And I'll see ya again soon!

Hugs,
Elise

Gosh Elise, just where do I start with this stunning creation? It's breathtakingly beautiful - definitely my favourite Elise creation and it has tough competition! Love these colours and the details on this card are awesome. How could we possibly think you were nuts? Every time I think of that conversation I have a little chuckle to myself!!! That pitcher of flowers is just too beautiful - what amazing colours; I can almost smell summer (even though it's hailing here!!!) Hugs, Jayne xx
