A Spooky Sneak Peek from Lili of the Valley...

Good Morning...

Today's card is a sneak peek of a gorgeous new fairy from Lili of the Valley.

 This sweetie is part of a new collection of Calendar Fairies out on 31st July.
Lovely October Fairy has been stamped and coloured with distress inks (another first for me and I love them)!

I have used orange and black to create my Halloween theme card and added some spooky eyes! 

All finished off with some stitching and Baker's Twine.

This little one looks far too cute to be scared though!

Absolutely wonderful colouring with your first go at Distress Inks Sue.. I have them in my drawer, but although I've had one or two goes, I've not yet 'mastered the art' as they say... but you seem to have had no such problem! I tend to reach for my Copics for speed so the DI's get neglected..

And I do love those spooky eyes poking out!

Big hugs
