Once Upon a Springtime Fairies

Saturday, I ventured to Iowa City for my first Farmers' Market of the season … I love wandering through the booths and exploring.  I came home with all sorts of goodies including fresh guacamole, dill cheese curds, bacon wrapped dates, tomatoes, and a beautiful potted begonia.  

I also stopped at Memories on Fifth for a little shopping and found a 12" sheet of framed fairies that was perfect for using up the rest of the papers from my Graphic45 Once Upon a Springtime Collection … it's also perfect for the Stamp Something Challenge to use Pretty Papers.  

I punched out the fairy from her frame and attached her with foam tape for dimension.  The sentiment is from CatsLife Press.

The next one has another Catslife Press sentiment that I thought was perfect.  I added a bit of sponging to bring out the layers.

The final one uses the Sunshine & Joy sentiment from Impression Obsession & some wired peach ribbon, which works for the Ribbons & Bows Challenge at the Corrosive Challenge Blog.

I just love the color combinations in this collection.  And here's a little bit of spring from my garden … my hydrangeas are just beginning to bloom.

Happy Monday.
