You know Donna, this is the perfect image and you put the colors together so very well as usual. Those are darling flowers. I love the lace you added - gives it that wonderful elegant feel for a fairy. I hate the summer because it's hot...LOL! But I don't have kiddies so at least there's no having to entertain them. Good you get some time off to bask in the sun. I just love your cards.
Hi Donna, this is a very pretty card! I love the sparkle!
Hugs Lynsey x
