Fairy in the woods

Hello there,

It's time for a new challenge over at the Fairy and Unicorn Challenge blog which starts today. As usual it last 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 gone with a fairy theme and used a kit which came with an issue of Papercraft Essentials. I'm not sure who I'll give it to so I've not added a sentiment yet. I edged the mats with double sided tape and added the glitter, I'd not tried this before and probably won't again as I got glitter everywhere!

Winter Solstice stag

Hello,

this is my DT card for the Fairy and Unicorn Challenge for November, where the theme is anything goes with the option of Winter Solstice.

I started with an 8 x 8 Kraft card blank, I used Limetree's Evergreen card and Cream Shimmer card, one of Tonic's Craft Perfect green cards and Kraft card. The background paper is from Trimcraft's Golden Winter pad.

I used Tonic dies: Layering Circles for the green mat, Yuletide Greetings for the wreath and Autumnal Oak for the leaves. The green branches were cut using Spellbinder's Build a Wreath, and I added green Wink of Stella to the branches, although it doesn't really show in the photo.

The stag was stamped and cut using a free gift from Simply Cards & papercraft magazine, and the sentiment was also a free gift from Papercraft Essentials. I finished it off with some red pearls to represent holly berries.

I hope you like my card, and that you will join us at the Fairy and Unicorn Challenge this month. If you've time to leave a comment that would be great.
