More Fairies

Good morning.  Hope everybody is okay, or starting to feel better.  Just a quick post because we are having mega problems with our broadband connection.  We are in a very rural setting and at the very end of of the line for the exchange - only a few feet from the next county Warwickshire - so our broadband is never quick but at the moment we can barely use it. BT - when we eventually managed to speak to somebody after being on hold for 47 minutes!!! - said it will be resolved by Wednesday mid - morning. I'm sure I just saw a flock of pigs flying past!

I tried to post this yesterday but it wouldn't,  because of the broadband problem, so I'm trying again now.

My Card


This is a 7" x 7" card base from AnnaMarie Designs.These fairies are from the same set as Sunday's card. The background is a Lavinia Scenescape which I bought in January and never used.  I printed the png images directly onto the card stock again and flipped the top fairy. I then printed the main image onto cardstock,  fussy cut her and attached her with Pinflair to give a little height to an otherwise flat card. The mushrooms were a freebie Lavinia image from a magazine. Lots of glitter again.The fairies were coloured with Promarkers. I computer generated the sentiment  which I felt was very apt for this shy little fairy. Then just matted it onto three coloured layers. 

I can't tell you how long it has taken to do this post so I'm going to stop right now and try to publish it.

    This is gorgeous Christine. I love your background design and colours. The way you have used the sweet image looks fabulous.
    I hope you get your broadband sorted soon. It must be so frustrating for you.

    Hello Christine I love your card, absolutely gorgeous, your little fairies are delightful and I love the little toodstools.
    Sorry to hear your having so much trouble with your broad band, so frustraiting for you. Would it help to change to another provider, I'm with Post Office and they are good, cheaper too. Hope you get it fixed soon, hugs Kate x

    Hi Christine
    Very pretty card and love the colours.
    A lot of folk seem to be having problems at the minute. Took me 30 mins yesterday to upload photos to Blogger.
    As for flying pigs, I love a bit of bacon ;>)
    Best wishes.

    Christine, Sorry you've having blogger problems. I think it's misbehaving just presently, as I've had difficulty joining some blogs, but not others. This sweet little fairy made into such a lovely card. I love the cool blues & the glisten of the glitter on your fairies. TFS & Hugs

    Wow, living in the Cotswolds is enjoying beuatiful countruside but I see it also gives problems.
    Well, I can see your lovely card now and I love the background!!
    Yes, I celebrated my birthday in Burford with a coffee and birthdaycake at Huffkins and in the evening a nice dinner at the Cotswolds Gateway hotel. We stayed at Wysdom touring park just around the corner (meaning: The round about at the top of the hill). We enjoy the Cotwolds so much...!
