This is my card for today's sketch challenge #399. Korin is our hostess and she provided us with a great layout.
For my card image I used the fairy silhouette (F411) from Great Impressions Stamps. I stamped the image in melon mambo ink onto my dp which is the Indian Summer collection from Basic Grey.
I added a butterfly cut from a Cheery Lynn Designs die and 2 punched from a Martha Stewart butterfly punch.
My card base is early espresso and I layered the Indian Summer dp on this base. This Basic Grey dp is a great match for SU's early espresso, melon mambo, rich razzleberry and crushed curry. If you have any of it in your stash.
My sentiment is from the MFP set - "oopsie daisy". I stamped in early espresso ink. I edged this sentiment panel with a scallop border punch from SU.
I am giving this card to my neighbor who has a fairy garden in her yard. It is so cute. There is a walking path with lots of plants and the cutest liitle accessories. I may take some photos and post them on my blog.

Mary, a delightful card in those wonderful shades of pink and beautiful BG DPs. I loved those papers too. The die cut butterfly goes so well with your fairy image.
