Digital Tuesday Challenge 36 DT Card - Christmas Song

Good afternoon, hope you are all having a good week and your Christmas preparations are going well, I've done my shopping now and I just need to get it all wrapped although I have made a good start but it always seems to take twice as long as I expect it to. Anyway today I have my DT card for Digital Tuesday, this weeks challenge is to make a card based on a Christmas song and I have chosen 'Santa Baby' as that what sprang to mind when I purchased this digi-image from CC Designs. I hope you like it too and if you have a moment hop over to the blog and have a peek at all the other DT cards, they are beautiful.

Totally Gorjuss Challenge DT Card - Sketch Meets Crafty Calendar Challenge 3 & Just Magnolia Week 34

Hello again, I don't think I have ever posted so many times in one day but this is the last time today I promise! As it is Friday it is also Totally Gorjuss Challenge day and this week it is a sketch challenge set by the fantastic Net and it is a great sketch too. I loved making this card, sketches are one of my favourite challenges and this week I have used a Tilda rather than a Gorjuss Girl as the challenge is now open to other stamps so everyone can join in the fun. I have also had a go at using distressing ink, I love the look of this technique when I see it on all your gorgeous creations and would love to hear from you if you have any tips on how I can improve. I am also entering this into the challenge over at Crafty Calender which is Winter Sparkle and Just Magnolia, a card for someone special.

News ...

Hello everyone, hope you are all well. I just thought I would update you with some design team news. Today I have made the decision to resign my post at Pixie Dust Studio, I make cards, blog and work on design teams because it is fun and it is a bit of me that is all mine as selfish as it sounds and sadly I wasn't having fun on this team even though all the girls were lovely and it was time to say enough is enough. But on a happier note I got an email from Linnie over at Cute Daisy May earlier this week and she asked if I would guest design for them for the next 3 months so how could I say no ... my first DT card is Monday so look out for that, Linnie's designs are gorgeous and I am going to enjoy the next 3 months alot.

Have a great weekend.

Pixie Dust Forest Friends Release Day

Hi! Just a quick post to let you all know the new collection of digi stamps from Pixie Dust Studio has been released today - I posted a card yesterday featuring the Owl Tree. It is the most gorgeous collection of images that can be used again and again for many occasions, I love them! Pop over to Kathy's shop to have a peek and maybe buy one or two. Here is a little story about the Forest Friends:

Pixie Pie was all ready to go on her adventure into the woods. She had her lunch packed and Wink by her side. She was careful to walk along the pathways that were covered with heart shaped stones... this way she could keep her boots looking like new. She stopped when she saw her dear friend Princess and Peek-a-boo. They decided to wander down the pathways together. As they walked they passed a wonderful mushroom with the funniest little critters upon it. They girls both giggled as the walked by. Pixie Pie heard a growling sound and become frightened..then she noticed it was just her stomach. So they found a grassy spot under a tree and ate lunch. They ended up feeding the sweetest squirrels and a perfectly Pink deer! Pixie and Princess knew the day was coming to an end and said good-bye to one another. Pixie Pie arrived home to find an invitation in the mail to a party..it was just not "any" party...it was a grand Ball!
