Spring is in the air...! :D
I gave it a fairly simple 'treatment' because I felt it is such a pretty, delicate image it needs no bells and whistles to improve it. I just matted it onto black card, then aqua card and mounted it onto some pretty aqua paper I had in my stash (maker unknown I'm afraid!) . The filigree black frame is a Spellbinders Labels One fancy die.
I did effect one little extra, I decoupaged the fairy and layered her with a little Pinflair glue, just to give a little extra dimension.
How lovely has the weather been over Easter..? ! It's been a joy to see the sunshine and be able to walk the dogs without them coming home resembling some kind of mud-monster!
Over at Left Of Centre Spring has sprung too - the theme this week is Spring Fling and we have two amazing sponsors who are offering prizes from their fab digistamp collections!
I've selected a Delicious Doodles image because a) it's really pretty and b) Teri Sherman, who does the drawing, is not only an amazing artist but a lovely lady too.
It's called 'Snowdrop Fairy' and can be found in her shop along with many other lovely images.
