Directions: 

1. Take your markers and color directly onto the french script stamp with all 4 colors. Stamp onto the water color paper. Repeating  the coloring and stamping until paper is covered with writing.





 

2. Punch out the circle with a piece of scrap card stock. This will be the template you will use.
3. Lay the template over the watercolor paper. Using your water brush blend the writing till you have a circle of color. Remove the template and allow to dry. (you may hasten the drying process by using your heat tool).







4. Stamp fairies with the black ink over the lower half of the circle.
5. Using the corner rounder punch the corners to round.
6. Color the fairies in with the colored pencils. I used the white to color their faces, arms and feet.
7. With your glue pen color in the wings on the fairies and sprinkle on glitter. Shake off excess. Allow to dry.
8. Stamp Dream in black ink on upper left side of card.
9. Attach water color piece to the yellow orange card stock.
