I had already coloured this Isabella fairy digi in purple and I was all set to do a CAS card but then my Distress Stains were crying out to be used so I just had to take note :) I splattered some purple and blue stain onto watercolour paper and misted it and then let it dry - I then stamped a flower background (it was a $1 stamp from the Michaels clearance bins) and I had my background for Isabella. Some old paper from my stash, some ric-rac and a couple of Wild Orchid flowers with a ticket sentiment and I was almost done - at the last minute, I decided to add some stick-on gems to the stamped flower background and voila.........
As well as the Dilly Beans challenge, I would like to enter this into the following challenges -

Great card. I adore that color combination. Fabulous job coloring that wonderful image.
You were rocking the CAS thing, but you're so darned good at the non-CAS style too!
Clean, simple and gorgeous!
