Debbie Moore has even more fairies! Aren't they beautiful....

Fairy folk in crafting is a huge trend lately,almost every craft company has added to the 'Fairy frenzy'
of the past few months and more. My own take on the fantastical fae folk has inspired me no end.....

This challenge asked for heat or dry embossing,so I used Symphoni from Spellbinding stamps to create a mermaid beach scene.

The sand and shells were brought back from holidays to give the beach effect.

There is no other lovelier place than the Penwith area of Cornwall in spring and summer; moorland mining sites,winding lanes flanked with wildflowers,scented violets,bluebells,thrift and semi-tropical plants adorn the quaint whitewashed cottages and hedgerows,but more than anything the stunning beauty of the wild pristine beaches simply take your breath away. Porthcurno beach was on my bucket list as was Sennen beach,how very lucky to see both.
