I fell down a rabbit hole a few weeks ago when someone mentioned a company I had never heard of, and I discovered they have some licensed artwork from Cicely Mary Barker. I adore her Flower Fairies and had started to collect the stamps when they were available through Crafter's Companion, but alas... the line was discontinued before I could get them all (the sentiment is from one of those sets). Anyway, now some of her artwork is available in clear sets from 49 and Market - this set is called Friends Forever, and I got it at The Scrapbook Diaries.
I stamped the image with IO Hybrid Chocolate ink, and that allowed me to do most of my coloring with Copics, but also to add some watercolor in the background with no ink issues. Love that!
The dimensional frame allows you to stack all kind of 3D elements inside... I could have done more layering, but everything in the image is so small - I just added a few extra mushrooms to the inside scene, and then added a few more to the frame on the card front.
This was a lot of fun - and it would mail perfectly in the Card Guard boxes from My Sweet Petunia!

Love the whimsey, Dina! Such an adorable scene. I love the posture of the fairy "visiting" with the mouse!! Most of us would not assume such a cute and casual posture when visiting with the local mice;))!!
