Here is the sketch
Here is my card
I turned the sketch onto it’s side as I wanted to use the decoupage Lavender Fairy and she looked better this way. The purple organza ribbon does not show up very well in the scan.
I used the lavender Fairy and Lavender Fairy backing paper from the Crafters Companion Flower Fairy CD. I think the butterfly card is from Kanban and the wired dragonfly is from Syntego.

Don’t wear white when gardening
When I was walking Charlie the dog this morning we went past a shop selling plants and I saw some lovely blue bedding plants so I brought some. The part of the garden I wanted to plant them in is in the shade until about mid-morning so I decided to plant them as soon as I got in, before the sun reached them. I watered the flowerbed, planted the plants, watered them in and then realised that I was in such a hurry that I had not changed. My lovely white skirt was not very white when I had finished. LOL Never mind the plants look nice, not sure what they are called as I forgot to ask and there was no plant label in them.
Anyway I did make a card today. I used the new Crafter’s Companion Popcorn CD. I do love popcorn he is so cute.
I used the decoupage popcorn but cut off the oval he was on as I wanted to use the curved rectangle nestabilities. I had some ribbon that matched his blanket to finish the card.
Thank you for all the comments you left after my first post.
