I'm not going to tell you where they are, so if you haven't found them you'll just have go back to the beginning and start hopping! *wink*

Here is my blog hop creation:

I used 'Fairy Toadstools' and 'Little Fairy Friend' from the new Meljens Collection and masked them together. I colored with Copics (skin) and Prismas (no OMS or blender used). To create the background I airbrushed, sprayed some adhesive on and sprinkled it with super fine glitter. For the 3D effect on the grass I used Flower Soft. The sentiment is from the new Party Mini Letter Seals. DP is from Basic Grey.

Here is a close-up on the image:

 I added even more glitz with Stickles to her wings and to the mushroom caps.
