Here's the story: Rapunzel has had so many complaints from customers landing in the moat that she has severely reprimanded Derek the Dragon & demoted him to a low level marketing position. Doesn't he look sheepish? Susie Swan has been promoted to the department of transportation (She's good at landings & take-offs, both land & water). William the Wizard has been hired as extra help. I hear he has a magic touch with hair & is skilled at predicting which styles will be short term fads & which will be classic glamour.
These stamps were among my very 1st & it has been fun to use them again.

Great scene for the story. Love it! I take it Rahier is standing guard over Derek to make certain he doesn't mess up anything else?

Oh Wow! this card couldn't be any more perfect for the tea party! Love your story! Poor derek, demoted, he does look so sad... but, look at the bright side...He can kick back and enjoy some of the party goers.. and maybe some special tea-grog being served at the salon! hey, you never know, it might return his landing and take of abilities! bring on the grog!
what a fun fun card!

Bwahaha! Poor Derek...look at him but I gotta tell you he's doing a great job holding up that sign! Hee! Love that sign, maybe that's what Rupunzel's new business really needed! I am anxious to see if Susie Swan can do any better....at least we all will feel like we are floating on a cloud!

Gorgeous scene you've created here. And I want to welcome you to the teapot party, always fun to see new faces. This is just what it's all about, creating from the imaginary. Great take on Rapunzel's wild adventures and love that Suzy Swan. Will try to remember to hitch a ride with her next time. TFS
