This card is for Kelli's HYCCT challenge to use a fairy. The one and only fairy stamp I could find in my stash is in a long retired set with a castle, princess, prince, frog, dragon and of course, a fairy godmother. I loved the sentiment for this challenge and for the cause, too. I thought the dragon was much too cute not to use her at all, so the dragon is stamped in pink on the inside. The star of the show, the fairy is watercolored, given some glitter, punched, sponged edges and popped up, along with the sentiment. The punched stars add a bit more glitz. What a fun challenge. I love how these challenges inspire us to bring out forgotten stamps, hoarded supplies and unused tools. I hope you are enjoying HYCCT. Thanks for looking. May your dreams come true and your dragons be few.

I am so grinning... ( I have this set) and I used to use this fairy on envelopes when granting wishes... so, its totally fun to me to see her be the star of her own card design. tfs

So very sweet! I love that EF. It seems to have been a perfect choice for many cards made for this challenge. Your little fairy looks wonderful all sparkled up. TFS
