This week's Tea Party is for Barbara in New Jersey and I am your hostess. My challenge is "Pen Pals" and I almost forgot all about using a pen for my card! I was too excited about Scrape Painting! Here is a second scrape painting background that I made for the TLC and it was a nice magical backdrop for these sweet fairies that Carla sent me. Thanks, my BTPFF! I chose two of the things that Barbara likes for this card--fairies and pink. These sweet friends were very fun to color and simple to pop up on my fun painted background. The background did need a bit more magic, so I stamped the "Believe in Magic" sentiment and random stars. Then I remembered my pen challenge and added a doodled border and some doodled swirls and some white gel pen highlights to the image. I hope Barbara enjoys the tea party in her honor and it lifts her spirits as she recovers from her surgery.

Wow, this card includes so fabulous elements from the scraped paint background, to your doodling on the background with the stars and stitches, and topping it all off with that adorable pair of fairies. Love it.

Gosh, I'm intrigued by your background, having just tried it myself. I guess you must have used something smaller like a credit card to get those multiple rings. Your fairies are adorable (I was wearing red wellingtons to work the other day, the security guard commented on them, LOL) and the doodled border is fantastic, it looks like stitching.
