Autumn is Here

Good Morning & A Happy Sunday to you all!
It's time for the latest challenge at The Crafty Pad this week!
The theme chosen by our lovely Pauline, is
#188- Autumn Colours
Here is my little offering!


The image I have used is Fairy Chloe on Mushroom.
I have coloured her with a mix if Flemarkers & Promarkers.
I cut out the image with a circle nestie & matted onto a
scalloped circle.The punched border was done using a 
Martha Stewart Doily punch


Here's a closer look.You can just about make out the Diamond Sparkles 
I have added. The DP's are from Lidl & one is pre glittered.


I decorated the inside of the card to reflect the outside.
The panel is a little smaller as I was using up some scraps.


The side view!


Side view of the outside. The ribbon is from a local haberdashers
& you can see I have added some gems in the top corner to balance the card!



The greeting is computer generated using a font called Faerie.
Emily, her sister & her mum all love faeries!
Our sponsor this week is

and the fab prize  is


1 Pack of Red Rubber Tree Stamps
1 6x6 Tree Themed Backing Papers
