Pixie Cottage Challenge #15


Hello Everyone,

Today we have another fun challenge lined up for you at The Pixie Cottage. As with all of our challenges, you have a choice.....you can either follow this weeks sketch or make a card with only the theme of this weeks challenge which is a card for Mother's Day or special friend or...you can use the sketch along with the theme! I think that it is great when you have options, don't you?

I made my card for a dear friend of mine and the image is a new Pixie Cottage Stamp from one our new artist Lisa Schmidt. The name of my adorable image is Cassidy and she is one of the images from Lisa Schmidt's Girls of the World collection.


Cassidy is colored in with Copic Markers and I lightly airbrushed the background . The design papers are SEI and Graphic 45 and the card stocks are Bazzill and Papertrey Ink. I embellished my card with tiny Prima Flowers, half pearls and ribbon. The sentiment is by SU and was punched out with a 1" circle punch.

For more information regarding the challenge and to see the fabulous DT cards, please click here.


Have a beautiful day and thanks so much for stopping by!
