Lili of the Valley- Summer Days stamp

Hi,
Not posted anything for a while, Just been busy with the horse and other bits and bobs. Need to get back in the swing of things. So what better way than inking one of my fav sweet stamps from
Love Love Love these stamps. Don't these little girls just look so cute making there daisy chains.
Reminds me of when I was sat on the school field on a warm summers day making daisy chains with my friends.
Used a selection of copic markers to colour the image. Also used shabby shutters distress ink with a dry paint brush to add the green grass and then used a copic marker to add blades of grass.
Used only one sheet of 6x6 design paper from the prima pixie glen pad. Its a bit of a faff on but I like to used my papers economically so I do a lot of cutting and working out how to make my papers go as far as I can. Matted the pixie glen paper on to light blue thin card.
Used spellbinders circles and Lacy circles dies.

Most of the flowers Ive used are from wild orchid crafts added the silver butterfly which I bought from my fav craft shop the paperlane.
The pearl trim I've used here, is usually used on decorated cakes,  bought a reel cheaply think it was £2.79,  and it must have about 5 meters on it. Its good to  look around for alternative decorations for embellishment's for your cards.

I have entered this card in to challenge.
Well that's its from me today.
