In Fantasy land at Sir Stampalot

Good morning friends! Today is the first day of May and that means it's time for a new challenge at Sir Stampalot. Our theme this month is"Magical Worlds" and it can be as simple as a single butterfly or full of fairies, unicorns and wizards, it really is up to you.
I went for fairies this time and here it is!
It is a double easel card with squares brayered with Hydrangea big and juicy, and stamped with two Lavinia fairies and Hobby Art (Anna's collection - Just for you) stamps. these and the sentiment are mounted on nesties Fleur de Lis squares. the border along the bottom edge was made with an x-cut corner punch. Here are some close ups of the brayered panels.
You can see I added a little bit of glitter to the flowers.
What is the prize I hear you ask...

More lovely goodies from Sir Stampalot!
Hope you are able to join us this month with your magical creation. Don't forget to pop over to the Stampalot challenge blog and take a look at the fantastic work my talented teamies have created.  I look forward to visiting you. Thanks for popping by and for your lovely comments.

    What a beautiful card Sally. The colours of that inkpad are gorgeous aren't they. Love the double easel and the images are so pretty. My friend bought those lovely Nesties a few weeks ago and between you I've been persuaded to put them at the top of my wish list. The little touches of sparkle are just enough.

    This is stunning, Sally and so much work. I love your brayering and those fairies look so magical with their touch of glitter. The Fleur De Lis Nestie is gorgeous. Another temptation!!
