Well.....Derek the Dragon is busy transporting Tea Party ladies, but he wanted to contribute to the 'hair' event. Daniella, his gal pal, one of the prettiest dragons in the fiefdom said she would go and have her scales polished and her feathers fluffed. A gal likes to look her best, ya know.......well....this is where things went wrong......she did not get a trained professional to do her polishing and fluffing.....one of the knights did her do.....and WOW did he DO IT!!!! He polished a bit, fluffed a bit, but realized he had done one side more than the other...so he trimmed....and then had to trim....and trim....and trim.....well.....as we can see above, Daniella is now running for cover as her scales have been polished off and her feathers plucked and she is so embarrassed that she is running to hide in a huge cave until they can grow back. She left a note for Derek, but she is really not sure when she will ever see him again.
The moral of the story......if a knight in shining armor offers you a haircut....run....run....RUN!!!!!
Thanks for looking!!

Oh my dear, Daniella looks a tad thin! All that polishing and feather fluffing.......do dragons have feathers? Oh well it is Teapot Tuesday and just about anything goes so if you say she had her feathers fluffed then that she did. Hope fully all this stuff grows back real soon. Cute card, fun story, happy day! TFS :0)

I think that's the same knight who cut my hair back in 1957 when I had to wear a scarf to school for three weeks until it had grown out enough to run a comb through it. Was his name Raul? The card by the way, is great. I love the colors the layout and all your detail. .

Well, I was planning on getting buffed and fluffed after tea, but after reading what happened to poor Daniella, I think I'll just clean the moat or something else exciting!
This is too cute, Joanne! Wonderful details! Love your story!

Funny story, scary too. I love the pretty setting for this huge squelleton. Poor dear, no wonder she is running, I think she should try and consult with Bafelda, she would surely help her put back some skin on those bones. LOL

Yikes! Me thinks Daniella has dinorexia and she's in denial and making up stories about a stylist cutting her hair off! Snort! Even the leaves look dinorexic! Follow me Daniella, I will show you were the grub is and show you now to eat to put weight on! It easy...you can do it!
Now this is a precious card and its fun to know what a completely naked dragon looks like! So glad you are feeling good enough to stamp! Snugs!
