A Card for the Sugar Bowl

Good Afternoon Crafters, yes I know Ive been a naughty girl again and unfortunately this card may be the last for a couple of weeks as two of my grandsons are coming to stay next weekend for a week, they are the sons of my youngest daughter so I dont get to see them very often as they live quite a long way from me, so to have them for a week is just fabulous.
And this is what my dog feels like in this weather, she is finding it rather hot.
She wont stay on her own in the garden and once I go upto my craft room guess who follows Missy, she has her own bed on the futon settee by the side of my desk, and she makes herself comfortable on a pillow, though at this moment shes moved of onto the patchwork quilt, must be cooler.
Todays card has been created with one of the new Funky Kits Fairies, and I have stamped her onto white card then used my copic pens to colour her. Afterwards I used Nestabilitie Die Labels No.1 and a fancy one for the mount. The sentiment is one from my stash and that has been then cut and mounted on a folded banner diecut from Memory Box.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of blue card, the papers are from Maja and I have used three papers for my card. The mounted image was then placed in the middle with the sentiment down below on the right hand side.
To finish of I have used some clear dew drops as embellishments in the two opposite corners top and bottom.
This Card is to be entered in the following Challenges:-
