Fairy Fae

I just finished off a card order that I have had for a little bit. The request was for a 'pinky' card with a fairy and the usual name, age, etc.

I found the image at Tiddly Inks and instantly fell in love and had to buy it immediately (like I don't have enough other fairies to work with!!)

And started straight away!! I didn't use a sketch (not the norm for me) as I didn't was to hide the PP.
