Winter fairy....

Got a bit of lovely sunshine this morning, not a bit like winter......

I adore LOTV stamps and have treated myself to a few...this one is called " Midsummer's Night ", but fairies don't feel the cold so I have made a cute different winter Christmas card with her.

Just made a background using distress ink and water and frantage for the snow. Coloured in using copics and a glitter pen for a bit of sparkle. Added a few die cut trees, sentiment, bobble trim, gingham ribbon and a few snowflakes !!
