1. First take the glossy paper, the Water Lily  stamp and the black ink, stamp the

Water Lily twice on the paper.

2. Then take a paper to make masks from for the flowers (I always use old print paper for it ),

mask the two Water Lily and make sure that you do NOT throw away the paper where you

3. Then take the fairy stamp and your black ink and stamp the woman between the

two flowers.  Mask her the same as the flowers, now you don't need to save the old paper.

4.Then take the coasts from Stampscapes, left and right side, and the black ink, stamp them

5. After that take the tree cluster stamp from Stampscapes and the black ink and stamp it

6. Take the Sea Shells Citrus Green and something to sponge and sponge the part from the

grass of the coasts to a little higher than the trees, then keep a white space and after that

sponge the very top also.

7. Take first the Adirondack light green and sponge the ink over the first layer of green,

but keep a little of the citrus green over so not all is done over ( look at above photo ), then take

the dark green and do the same again but also this time make sure you keep some of the

at the upper side by the green , around the flowers and some on the coasts and trees.

Then take the Brilliance moonlight white ink and sponge it over the black ink, so you will

10 . Take the blossom stamp and the black ink and stamp it two times in the air

11. Take the white gel marker and color the blossom flowers white and also the flowers

on the branch which the fairy is holding, then remove all the masks from the card.

12. Take some markers in green colors and color the fairy in different layers green,

 then take again the white ink and sponge over the fairy so she will also get a misty look.

13. And here comes the trick with the old paper you had too save at the beginning! Lay it over the

flower and take your green inks again , sponge the topsides of the leaves in green, do that with

each flower, make sure the mask is good on the flower or else you have all green stripes over your
