Hope your day is fabulous...

Happy Sunday!
What a lovely sunny day we've enjoyed here in the UK today.

I'm just dropping by to share a card made today using the new release from A Day for Daisies. Isn't she a sweetie? She's called 'Wild Rose Nymph' and is currently on sale at 50% off.

I coloured her with Promarkers, and then used Heliotrope Versacolour for her wings as I wanted a much softer look then I could achieve with a pen. A smoosh of glitter was then lightly applied so that it didn't look too heavy.

I made this card as my entry for the LIM Week #118 colour challenge. The girls want us to pick a colour from either side of the colour wheel. I went with Violet and Yellow Green. Yes, I know a little pale violet has crept in but I did notice that Chrissie had two different shades of green on her card so I'm hoping my card will pass muster.

Happy crafting everyone, and enjoy the Bank Holiday tomorrow if you live in the UK!

This is such a sweet card! I love the purples and that darling image. I've gotten so lazy with colouring images that I admire it when I see it.
