Happy New Year from the cute unicorn!

Hello there,

Happy New Year, lets hope it's a good one!

My first post of the year is to let you know that it's time for a new challenge over at the Fairy and Unicorn Challenge blog starting today. As usual it lasts for about a month so I do hope that you'll join us.

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 blog. 

This month I've decided to make a unicorn card as I had some pretty unicorn paper which I must have had for at least 3 years, and also a unicorn digi stamp.



Card recipe

7 x 7 white linen effect card blank
Unicorn paper from my stash
Purple card for the mats
