Last Tuesday's Teapotter Tickle card theme was a Fantasy Fairy Teaparty. We were asked to use our birth month flower and a fairy on our cards. I repeat stamped my PTI chrysanthemum stamp on the background panel and colored the flowers with two shades of SU pink and the leaves with two shades of SU green. I used my MFT die-namics to cut a black frame and cream center for my Prima Fairy Rhymes stamp. I colored her in the same two SU pinks w/blonde hair. I used my white Wink of Stella glitter ink brush on her dress and "wings." I adhered three Zva pearls to the top arch of the frame and then to my main panel. I added pink vintage seam binding that I crinkled a bit to the panel. I used Scotch mounting squares to adhere to my MFT slate gray base. This card was time-consuming and made with love! I hope that whoever receives it as their March Tickle will like it.
I made my 4 x 8.5 card for today's WT472 challenge.
Thanks for looking!

Your hand made designer paper is gorgeous and both your little fairy and flowers are wonderfully colored. I can see where this was time consuming and I think any teapotter would truly appreciate your efforts as the end result is just stunning! TFS

Your card shows that it was made with love. I really like a card with true stamping on it like your background. Being a tall card it shows so well. Neat designed card. Thanks for playing in the challenge.

What a sweet card. Perfect background for a precious image and topped off with the perfect ribbon.
