Hello fairy!

Hello lovely people,

Are you all back in the swing of 'normal' life after Christmas and New Year?!
Since I'm on a career break (did I mention that at all?!) it's less change for me but I did take a break from coursework and let the cleaning slip a little so I have picked that all up again this week.

I have also been planning away in my head to do some different crafty projects and more tutorials on my blog this year.

I also finally got myself on Twitter so if anyone wants to follow along you can find me under @KatWaskett.

Phew, after that little bit of waffle, it's time for me to share the new Creative Inspirations challenge and this week we have the theme...

FLORALS

This card saw me in full-on girly mode and using my fave colour combo and some of my fave papers too.
So, it's no wonder I really love how it turned out!

The die cut 'hello' has been unused in my stash for a while but it was the perfect match for this image, and I have layered up 2 die cuts to make it a little sturdier.

Hello card featuring Tiddly Inks fairy image


I grabbed a load of Tiddly Inks images in the Black Friday sale last year ('last year' still sounds kind of odd to me!) so I am trying to find the time to play with them all...starting with this gorgeous little fairy :-)

    Kat, this is a truly beautiful card. I love the colours you have chosen and your colouring is absolutely gorgeous. I love the texture on the centre of the flowers and the dotty wings (I might borrow that wonderful idea)! Your card design is really pretty with those lovely layers and pretty details... Just super duper in every way.
