The spring equinox is always special, bringing a subtle change from the dark days of winter but even more magical is the first full moon of spring. I always knew it was a time of fantastical creatures and now we have proof! :-D
The unicorn image is from Dragon's Lair Designs and, once again, I colored with polychromos pencils. If I keep practicing with them, I might actually get good. I did add a few glittery stars to the sky with a sparkle gel pen but they just don't show in the photo. After coloring, I cut the image with a plain square die (QuicKutz) and mounted it in the center of a larger blue CS square, which I put on the front of the card base.
All the leaves were cut from scrap CS with a die from Cheery Lynn and they are embossed, giving the card some great texture. The orchid flowers were in my stash. I have no idea how long I've had them but I don't think I've ever used them so it definitely was time. They, too, added texture.

Your creation is so magical indeed! I love the silhouette look of the images with the yellow moon behind! I never thought about this, but the night time is just as magical and pretty as the day! :) Thanks for sharing! Hugs & Smiles - *Vicki*
