I used to write teeny, tiny notes to my grandkids when they were little, I loved the look on their faces when they came to see us and tell us they got a visit from the Tooth Fairy. Here is my card.
I stamped this sweet image onto Canson water color paper with Stazon Jet Black ink and colored it with SU markers and the aqua painter. then, I sponged the sky with distress ink. I stamped the cherries and her leafy skirt onto some scraps of Strathmore 90lb. water color paper because I wanted to fussy cut them to give it some dimension, I rubbed my bigger stylus in the back to "plump" them up a bit. I also used the Fairy Dust stamp from the set with Versamark ink and heat embossed it with gold glitter embossing powder.
Looks like she's shaking all of this golden Fairy Dust all over the place.
The pattern paper is from Lili of the Valley, I die cut the image and the frame using the retired Labels Collection framelits set and did a bit of paper piercing with the matching mat, I love the way it looks.
Here is a picture of the finished inside of my card, the sentiment is from the Fairy set, the butterfly is from another gorgeous Stampin Up! set called Watercolor Wings. I stamped the Fairy Dust stamp from the set above and below the sentiment with Versamark ink and heat embossed it with Iridescent embossing powder, hope you can see it in this picture.
Here is the sketch that inspired this card.
Thank you for stopping by, until next time, happy stamping.
Hugs from Maria.

I came to see your RRCB card but had to stop by and tell you that I absolutely love your fairy card!! I had to buy this stamp set too but haven't had a chance to use it yet. Your cards have been very inspirational!! Love how you colored this - it truly looks like an illustration right out of a story book! Pinning it for later...

Thank you Tina, I adore Fairies, I think it's the little girl in me that believe they exist. This set is so beautiful and whimsical, it's such a joy to color this images.
Thank you Debbie, I hope you get to use this stamp set soon, it's just so beautiful.
Fairies are mystical and sweet little creatures, my granddaughters used to play in our back yard for hours building little houses out of twigs and moss and grass, make little dishes with Play-Doo.
I can't wait till this set is ONE YEAR OLD so I can share it in our Retro Rubber challenges.
Thank you for stopping by, my dear.
Thank you Mary, there is nothing a little Fairy Dust can't fix.

Thank you Crystal, this little Fairies really are just so adorable. I guess the little girl still living in all of us, hangs on to the thought they are real.
