What a pretty scene, I do see the fairy, and I thought it was so clever to have the cherries on the sentiment. I was too busy looking at the lovely cherry blossom to spot the fruit at first.

A beautiful scene and card. Your little fairie is special and that moon looks so real the way you added the colors. Your cherry blossoms are wonderful too.
