My son asked me if I'd make a card for a lady who is retiring where he works so I agreed. It had to be A4 so that lots of people can sign it. I have used Buttercup from my Crafter's Companion Flower Fairies CD and imported her and made her larger than normal. I have decoupaged her more than normal as the card won't be posted.
This cards fits the criteria for the following challenges:
Friday Sketchers - the sketch this week appealed to me but I thought I'd use it on a square or A5 card but I thought as I liked it so much I'd use it for this A4 card. This was certainly a challenge but thank you to Friday Sketchers as I think it worked well as sometimes I struggle on what to put on a card this size

Dutch Dare Challenge - to use cutting dies and/or punches

What a gorgeous classic flower fairy - I ahven't seen on in ages. It is adorable. And how strange that two challenges should have fairies in the same week! thanks for playing
Beautiful card Kym,

It must have been quite a challenge making an A4 card Kym but you’ve done a fab job!
I have to do one for a retirement in a few weeks too and if I’m honest I’m finding the prospect rather daunting.
Your Fairy image is really pretty and I just love the way you’ve decorated the inside of the card.
