Neutral Lili Fairy

This card was a little out of my comfort zone due to the fact that it contains neutral colours and no really patterned papers. I used one of the Lili of the Valley 'Little fairies' stamp and coloured it with Polychromos pencils. I also used some papers from the Nitwits Manhunts collection. The greeting is also from Lili of the Valley Teddies collection. The little butterflies are from the My Favourite Things stamp set 'Life is a Picnic'. The heart was die cut using the X-cut die collection 'Homespun Hearts'.

This card is for the following challenges:

* Neutral Colours - Sunday Stamps,
* Thanks - Indy Wincy,
* Colours - Colour Throwdown,
* Fairies / Angels - Deep Ocean Challenge,

I also used two embossed card blanks from Papermania and some gems. The Happy Birthday stamp is from Avery Elle and the set is called 'Handwritten Notes'.
