Tinkerbell

Hi everyone,

It is my beautiful daughter's 7th Birthday today. Last year I didn't make her a card and I got into so much trouble from her. I was working on the principle that she wouldn't appreciate what I made - but I guess I was wrong. I was going to make her a castle as per Kim Score - but a friend of mine beat me to it - I will show that card tomorrow. So I thought I would make her a fairy - but where to start? I was searching Splitcoaststampers in their punch art gallery and came across a fantastic Tinkerbell. I don't have the ladies blog address but I have emailed her for her information so that I can give credit it where it is due.

Here is my version. I am not completely happy with her. Her head is too big and I don't like her legs but I am hoping that all will be forgiven by DD7.

I decided to have her flying through some flowers so pulled out my trusty Elegant Bouquet EF.
