I decided to go back to my roots and use me Windsor & Newtons Cotman Watercolours - gosh I'm out of practice and do more!!     
I used Tom Holtz Water Color Cardstock with Artist Paint brushes for colouring and used Tiddly Inks Fairy Happy Day.  The Martha Stewart Cherish Round the page punch used the frame the image and added Simon Says Stamp Sketchy Banner to add the sentiment.  I used vellum but doesn't look well when photographed it so I might change this.



So now it's YOUR turn.  Happy Crafting
There are fabulous Give Aways and inspiration from fabulous designers on a daily basis over on the Simon Says Stamp Blog , if you haven't subscribed by email you may want to so you don't miss out
