Wow, that's actually great! I was a bit concerned about keeping the enchantment safe.

If I have a creature enchanted with [Vanishing](http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Search/Default.aspx?name=%2b%5bVanishing%5d) and any other enchantment, what happens if I activate Vanishing's activated ability?

I assume it works like: The enchanted creature does not count as existing, but the enchantments are still sitting around and are still target-able.

This alternate way of phasing out is known as phasing out “indirectly.” An Aura, Equipment, or Fortification that phased out indirectly won’t phase in by itself, but instead phases in along with the permanent it’s attached to.

and are therefore not targetable either.
