Magical Christmas

Hello again,

It's time for a new challenge over at the Fairy and Unicorn Challenge blog which as always starts the first Saturday of the month.. As usual it lasts for about a month so I do hope that you'll join us. This month I've chosen a Halloween theme with a cute witch and some ghosts for good measure.

The theme as always is Fantasy, however as long as it's Fantasy pretty much anything goes. If you're not sure what we mean by that just check out the guidance in the side bar on the Challenge blog.
