Flower Fairy

Hello friends.  This sweet fairy stamp is from Stamps Happen.  I'm not sure if this stamp is retired or not.  I really enjoyed coloring it.  I used my Prismacolor pencils.  I added some Shimmerz on her wings. 

 Challenges:
Flutterby Wednesday - Open Week
Crafts and Me - Favorite Stamp/Image
Clear It Out Tuesday - Wing It Out

My little dog, Princess, loves nature.  She will try to make friends with almost any creature that comes along.  The other night she tried to befriend a Blue Land Crab.  Fortunately, it was on the other side of the fence or she may have ended up with a nasty pinch on her nose.  The crabs are about 6" across.
Her favorite friend is one of the squirrels in our back yard.  They spend a great deal of time entertaining each other.  Here are photos of the squirrel peering down at Princess from the tree and Princess peering back up at the squirrel. 

Blessings
  • Our beautiful, nature-filled back yard.  One of my favorite places.
  • I've been able to make some cards lately.
  • A good report for my daughter from her doctor.
Have a wonderful day!!!

Inky hugs!
Shelly

I'm not sure which is cute...Princess the dog or the flower fairy card, both are adorable and I love the pics of the animals, I'm glad the crab was on the other side of the fence too!
