Lili of the Valley Birthday Fairy

Good morning everyone I hope that it is a nice sunny day for you all where ever you are, today I am sharing Birthday Fairy with you, she is one of my favourite stamps I know I say that about them all but the girls are my favourites...

I have been feeling in a minty mood for a few days and I think the mint colours suit her, I was inspired by a peppermint Aero I do not like chocolate but I do like the smell of those, the papers are Raspberry Road, Cottage Charm and have all been distressed with chalk ins, my Fairy has been coloured with Copics and a touch of White Pen, I have added some Stardust for sparkle, the sentiment is from the new Handwritten Phrases and I have stamped one on the inside too along with the Grudge Corners. I have added some 25mm, 15mm, 10mm Roses, Cherry Blossoms and Sweetheart Blossoms, the Seam Binding was white but I coloured it with my copic to match, and a Butterfly...
