Flower fairy

Hello lovely people,

It's time for a new challenge at In The Pink and our theme this month is...

FLOWER GARDEN

 So we want to see all those beautiful floral creations...in PINK of course!

Apologies for the wonkiest photo ever, it was just one of those days!  I have crammed in the flowers though, on the image, the DP and some lovely 3D flowers too :-)
I have had some hessian ribbon for a little while now and decided it was time to use it, and I do love it teamed with the seam binding and twine - both rustic and pretty.


I have just started the skin and hair colouring class at Kit and Clowder and whilst I have a long way to go I feel I have made some improvements already...like the hair on this little lady...what do you reckon?
This is just one of the many gorgeous new fairy stamps at LOTV; I could so have bought them all but had to resist!

Your hair colouring is STUNNING in the extreme Kat... and I'm going to have to register for those lessons if this is what you can produce! Do you use a white highlighter pen at all at the end?
