Description:

I'm such a fan of the flower fairies! I thought it might be fun to create an ATC featuring one of Cicely Mary Barker's flower fairies.

Perhaps you'll choose the Daisy Fairy . . . . or the Zinnia Fairy . . . it's completely up to you!

One added element to our ATC: please place the first letter of your Fairy's name in the upper left corner of the ATC. For instance, if you choose the Zinnia fairy you would place the letter 'Z' in the upper left corner.

HERE is a link to Barker's Flower Fairies on Google.

Please join in the fun!

Are the images from the link free? It lets me copy and paste, but I think that would be a copyright infringement. Where else can I find images that are not costly; another sight sold the pictures for $25 / each!

SUGGESTIONS, ANYONE?

Hmmm....I don't believe it's a copyright infringement unless you are selling it . . . is that right? Since our trades are free, it shouldn't be an issue.

I hope you are right @isabellasnow because I have made copies before. You can check her books out at the library and copy the images on your copier(printer) at home. I shrink the images accordingly. Also, you can go to Amazon.com and buy her books used. They are tiny little books and quite inexpensive. I have recd postcards in swaps, so you must be able to purchase postcards of the fairies somewhere...

Hi Laura! I have the books of postcards and I'm assuming if I buy the book, I could use the postcards in my own art? I hope I'm right too because I copy SCADS of images to use in my ATC crafting. Well . . . if I'm wrong, we'll all go to copyright jail together and have a whale of a time crafting!

OK...I've been doing a bit of internet research about copyright laws and I think we're ok to use printed images as we do under the "fair use" part of copyright law. Here's a little blurb: "Using the original image for personal use or as a demonstration for educational purposes one time and for a limited audience is O.K." . . . we're using for personal use or for a very limited audience of one.

I'd love to join this swap, I have fairy/flower images not sure if they are this artist... let me know if I can still join? I think you will see some of the fairy & flora series I did on my Flickr page! Let me know! Thanx! Love Fairies!! XO

Whoo-hoo we could go to jail and scrounge around for crayons : )

Thanks for all the research Kristy - Dang! And I thought maybe we could all possibly meet up in jail. As the show says, "Orange Is The New Black".
