Another fancy fold card today. I really like how this card turned out and I think this may well be one I don't give away.
I used a Lavina 'Laurel' stencil with Distress ink for the background of all the panels. The images are all Lavinia stamps, stamped with Versafine Clair 'Nocturne' and I watercoloured the little house and the fairy's lantern with Distress Inks. 'Rue' the large fairy, 'Fairy Foragers', the small fairies and the 'Fairy Hive' were all inked up for the first time, so I'll be sharing my card over in the NBUS challenge.
I am joining in the following challenges:
