Mushroom Break..

Fairies are invisible and inaudible like angels. But their magic sparkles in nature. -Lynn HollandThis week's Cupcake Inspirations sponsor is Prairie Fairy and they gave each of the Sweeties an image to play with. I chose Mushroom Break, she is just So cute taking a little sit down, leaning on the woodland mushroom. I pulled the blues and the swirls from the cupcake and then used the ColourQ colors and the CPS sketch to finish up the card. Lots of sparkles on this one...as always! ;)

I added a sky behind the little fairy using a sponge, a scallop circle cut out and soft sky ink. (If you are interested in a tutorial let me know in the comments section and I will work one up)

I used the rest of the piece of Webster's Pages paper for the inside, I didn't want to waste a bit of this gorgeous paper!!!
