This week our cards are going to a fellow Teapotter that is in need of cheer and warm fuzzies. Michelle has been through a rough patch lately so us Teapotter's are coming to the rescue.
We're sending some fairies
and flourishes too,
Felicity wants a tattoo like Lou.
Felicity has no meat on her bones,
Even in the the no see zones.
Just a little tat is all she wants
Something that will stop all the taunts
A tiny little fairie or flourish will do
with wings and curls and the color of blue.
This little fairie is a Zinnia fairie. I have this old coloring book of fairies and flowers of the alphabet. I copied the fairie and colored the image. I copied that again, sizing it smaller than the full page. There wasn't room for the flourish, so that went on the envie.
I hope that all these fairies bring a smile to Michelle's face and heart. If there's a tattoo in her future, it may just be one of these fairies!

My flower garden contains some of these beautiful flowers. It's just like looking out my window... but I've never seen a fairy there! Beautiful card, coloring. You'll get the extra cookies today.

Your zinnias are gorgeous. They bring back memories. We lived on a farm when I was little. There were two rows of trees perpendicular to the road. My dad planted zinnias in between those rows - I think the area must have been about the size of a football field (seemed MUCH larger when it came time to weed...). It was extremely showy - we would hear brakes squeal as drivers stopped to look.
