Believe ?

I didn't think I would be doing Fashionable stamping's challenge this time as the theme of Mysterious or magical sort of eluded me, couldn't think of any stamps to use as I don't normally do fantasy stuff, I dug out what few stamps I could think of and nothing inspired me. Yesterday, looking through a pile of unmounted stamp sets I saw the Oxford Impressions Fairy Sweet set and shame on me, I have never used this gorgeous little fairy before. The background came from a pile of inky bits and pieces so I have no idea what I used on it, probably some glimmer mists as it is quite sparkly. The stamped bit of paper at the bottom I used a freebie stamp from a magazine. The bit of lace was in the bits and pieces box and the heart and wording are from another Oxford Impressions set.Now I have got these sets out think I may be using them quite a bit again.

    Hi Joan
    We are all guilty of neglecting some of our stamps but glad this challenge theme resulted in you using this sweet fairy.
    Love the detail of the gorgeous lace.
    Thank you for once again supporting FSC.
