For my blog hop creation I used the new image stamp "Wee Snippet and Mystic" along with a sentiment from the new "Magical Mini Letter Seals". Crissy has illustrated these beautiful new characters called Mystic and Wee Snippet and Ann has done a fabulous job creating a sentiment set to coordinate perfectly.
My image was colored using Copics and some Stickles accents. I've used papers from Memory Box and distressed all the edges. The Double Scallop Border Die is accenting the edge of one paper layer and has been embellished with ribbon, a button, twine, and a mushroom charm (also available at Whimsy). The rest of the card was embellished with lots of flowers, more glitter, and some butterflies cut from the papers. The sentiment was stamped with brown ink and it says "Fairy Happy Birthday".
