Fairy staircase

Good morning everyone, I hope all is well in your world...hugs
A few peeps suggested that the fungus growing up the tree on one of my latest photographs looked like a fairy staircase which gave me the idea for this 12x12 page. Not too sure about it but heyho, I can always try again later :o)


I used several stamps from Lindsay Mason and Lavinia. The fairies were created by myself and PatEssex on Docrafts from two of my own photographs. That was in the days when we were producing CDs from our own pics. The lady we used is from a photograph I took of the Memphis Belle (remember the film) aeroplane at Duxford some years ago, and the wings are a flutterby I took at a bird and butterfly  park somewhere in Dorset or Somerset, I think it was at Rode, also many years ago. The large mushrooms at the bottom are actually a wooden one at Carsington Water, Derbyshire and I thought it made a great resting place for our fairy LOL. All in all, I have created the image using 4 different photographs, then printed it onto Daler-Rowney tracing paper and cut it to 8x8. Dies used are Marianne and Memory Box. I haven't done any journalling as it is just for me, but I may add a title later :o)
