A Second Bridgit Ashwood Card

Good Afternoon Ladies, heres my second Bridgit Ashwood Fairie Card, this is one funky girl for sure I bought her here at Crafts and Me. Ive stamped her onto white card and coloured her with my copic pens, then used the oval Nestabilitie Die to cut her out, then a scalloped one for mount out of lilac pearlescent card, the sentiment is one of the LOV circle stamps and Ive cut and mounted it in the same way.
The base card is a 6"x 6" and the first mount is in lilac card and Ive used three papers from the Kay Millers "Wings" downloads the first one is a all over pretty butterflies and flowers pattern, the second one is a stripped one and down each side Ive used a hole border punch from Martha Stewart, the last one is a green pearlescent and a spotted pattern on a green background.
Ive created a mauve pleated ribbon across the card, Im sorry its a bit wonky then on top Ive stuck the mounted image and the sentiment at the bottom on the right. The flowers were created with my retro flower punches and Ive pearl brads put through the middle, then stuck to the card with some punched our leaves on silicone glue. The corners were cut out with the Marianne dies, and positioned in opposite corners.
