Magical fireflies


Here's a card I made for the Sweet Sketch Wednesday Challenge, which celebrates 100 sketches this week.  My image is a freebie from A Day For Daisies, their sponsor, lovely isn't it?  I've colored with Copics, Distress Inks and Stickles.  Annoyingly, the Stickles have run a bit where I added Glossy Accents to the jar, even tough I left it nearly a week to apply it.  Hopefully it just makes the freflies light look diffused:).
The sentiment is Lily of the Valley, the DPs are Prima.

My card is for the following challenges:
Sweet Sketch Wednesday Challenge - sketch
Blogger's Challenge - nature
My Mum's Craft Shop - cute and girly
