my virtual garden! However, can I say I'm really not READY for Spring to be here? Oh well, that's not quite right...I love to see the bulbs pushing up in my garden and see all the street trees budding. It's just my relaxing, lazy days of knitting and mugs of espresso and reading are soon going to be put away for the season and I have to wave a flag of surrender: I CAN'T do it all. I will be off to dig in the dirt and swing a leg over my bike. And still fall short of doing all I WANT to do!!! Anyone feel that way.
And so I approached these three wonderful challenges with MY little fairy girl...
WT:How Does Your Garden Grow I grow flowers.
F4A:'It's My FAVORITE!' As I suspect many will say Purple and Green.
MIX:Tulips, Daffodils, or Pansies I've got all those and more.
I used a vintage timekeeper paper to stamp the Stampers Anonymous fairy. And then paper pieced the hat and body. A snippet of vintage German scrap in silver connects the hat. The wings were embossed in clear ep and set free from the page. Notice that tiny BE YOURSELF.
The DP is a long retired Memory Box paper. I hoard those even more then my beloved Basic Grey's...smile. It seemed so Springy. A wooden button that says, Remember This. A tiny spray of metal floral trim. A few sequins.
The fancy heart was dry embossed directly into the papers. And the Hampton Art stamp with just a piece of the sentiment used. FOLLOW YOUR...
Thanks so much for stopping by. Your comments are like water to me in my crowded garden!!!

Love this spectacular creation, Susan!! I am not too excited about spring myself!! It has brought with it too many weeds and too much yard work! I am getting too old for this!!

Artsy and whimsical and fabulous, Susan! Looks like you tore the paper around the fairy, impressive work!!!! I'm ready for spring, and that balancing act is tough. Hope you pop in with one of your fabulous creations during the summer.

The seasons don't impact me like that but I definitely feel that way ALL the time - just not enough time to do everything I want! Your card is so thoughtful, detailed, and fun, Susan. As always it is deep and artsy and wonderful. Hugz
