Sarah Kay - My Sweet Lili in soft peach

This is the first in a series of cards which are to be used as Thank You cards for the boys pre-school and nursery teachers for the end of term. I have used one of my favourite Sarah Kay's for this card. I have coloured her in distressed inks and mounted her onto porcelin basic grey paper which the edges I have inked first in a bronze ink pad and then stickled. I hope you can see it fully as it is very dfark and overcast here today. The flowers are WOC and I have added a little teddybear charm to the bottom of the flower cascade.
