The inspiration picture is full of sweet little snapshots of things you might see in fairyland. It inspired me to use one of my favorite old stamps from Rubber Stampede and the ReviDevi Retro Garden Fairy digi stamp. I looked through my stash to find some paper that would fit and ran across this great Graphic 45 rose paper. I normally hold all Graphic 45 paper in my hoard section that I refer to as "this paper is so cool you really don't want to ever use it," but this card was screaming for it.
I have to say that I am really now a digi image convert. I love that you can size the image as big or small as you want (you can even make them skiny or fat which I wish worked in real life!!!!). Plus, they are so much cheaper.
I posted this on my blog yesterday morning and stated that I needed my Fairy Godmother - she showed up yesterday! Really, it was God but work with me on this. She (He) saved me from a huge disaster at work that would have thrown my numbers off by millions, rescheduled my surgery for tomorrow so that I was the first one and wouldn't have to wait, and solved a huge personal issue I had. It was a good day! Hope you had a great day yesterday as well, and another great one today.

Hey I just noticed your watermark. My friend Barbara has a dog (Gracie) just like that. How cute!!! This card is so sweet. Those fairies are adorable. I can see why you were hoarding that paper-it is awesome. Glad everything worked out for you and that you are resting today and on the mend. Sending huge hugs your way!
