Believe in the fairies

Hello again,

Today I'd like 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 and share your makes.

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 had to make a card in a hurry as I was going to be away through most of March, so I made a bit of a cheat card! I used a Lavinia Scene-Scapes background and some free gift stamps to create a quick card.

Card recipe

7 x 7 white card blank

Black, purple and white card for the mats, cut using John Next Door plain and Stitch Dot square dies

Lavinia Stamps Magic Scene-Scapes card

Enchanted Woodland stamps from Creative Stamping Issue 83

 

I hope you like the card I've made, please leave a comment to let me know what you think if you've got time. I do appreciate them and like to read them.

Please also join us over at the Fairy and Unicorn Challenge this month, we'd love to see you.

Sparkly gift bag

Hello there,

Today I'd like to let you know that we've a new challenge starting today over at the Pearly Sparkles Challenge Blog. The theme this month is Anything But a Card, so feel free to use your imagination with this. I made this gift bag using a Tonic die set, the colour scheme means I could use it for Christmas but as the embossing is stars it could be used for other occasions, depending on the tag which is added. . 

I do hope you'll join us over at the Pearly Sparkles Challenge Blog this month and share your makes with us.
