No Internet Service!

Happy Thanksgiving and a blessed day to everyone.

Hello everyone, I have been without Internet service every since Tuesday evening:( For some reason or other, my Internet router box went on the blink and nothing is working! I called Charter Cable first thing Wednesday morning and a serviceman will be out to check out the malfunctioning router box Monday.

So.... we are over to my cousins house for the holiday and thankfully she let me use their family computer to communicate. Bless them, I so thankful for my entire family!

Have a beautiful day and enjoy all of your blessings!

Sweets For the Sweet!



Hello Everyone,
This weeks Pixie Cottage Saturday Showcase is designers choice! I based my project around this adorable image named Cuddly Cute . My immediate thoughts were to make something sweet for the "girly type girl". I settled on a card and treat box combo.


My treat box includes a hot chocolate packet and a small bag of mints. I found the directions for the treat box here.



Cuddly Cute is colored in with Copic Markers and I added a little sparkle to ears of the mice.

The card stocks are Bazzill and Papertrey Ink. The design papers are from DCWV Sweet Stack. The flowers are by Prima and I also embellished with half pearls and ribbon.

For more showcase inspiration, be sure to stop by The Pixie Cottage DT blogs, you won't be disappointed!

Here's hoping that you have a beautiful weekend and thank you all so very much for stopping by!

hugs

Just Dropping In To Say.......

Twilight
Twilight Movie and New Moon Merchandise


Just dropping in to say "hello"! I don't have a card to share today and at the moment I'm working on a project for next week. (I should have said that my card is working on me...nothing is falling into place at the moment!) However, tomorrow is The Pixie Cottage's Showcase Saturday and I'm pretty excited about it!

For The New Moon fans out there, today is the day! We brought our tickets earlier this week and I can't wait to see the movie later this afternoon!

Have a blessed day and I'll be back tomorrow.

Hello Everyone and Happy Thursday!

This weeks LOTV Challenge is to create a card based off this lovely sketch designed by the super talented Jacqui! I also want to welcome our two newest DT members to LOTV . Welcome aboard Nicola and Caz!


You have two weeks to complete your challenge card and you can use any image that you desire. However, if you have LOTV stamps, feel free to use them! For more inspiration, stop by and visit the LOTV DT blogs.

I made my card with one of the new fairies (Fairy Bouquet) and I think these new fairy stamps are so cute! My image is colored in with Copic Markers and the sentiment is by WOJ. Fairies wings are embellished with Twinklets and the ribbon sash with Liquid Pearls. The design paper is by DCWV and the card stocks are Bazzill and Papertrey Ink. Other embellishments are felt flowers, paper piercing, ribbon and Diamond Stickles.The background was airbrushed with Copic Marker B00.



Remember, you have two weeks to complete your challenge cards. Have loads of fun and we can't wait to see what you make!

Have a great day and thank you all very much for stopping by!
