A Pixie Sketch

Happy Wednesday!

Well, our school vacation week is half over, time certainly goes by quick when you are on break! We had a great day with friends yesterday and today we have plans to clean out the garage and get rid of some old stuff. Fun times!

I do have a card to share with you today, this one is for the new challenge at The Pixie Cottage. This week we have a sketch and a theme of Mother's Day. You can use both the sketch and theme or one or the other. I've used just the sketch on my creation today.

I picked this sweet stamp called Waking up to Spring available at The Pixie Cottage shop. The flowers remind me of Black-Eyed Susans, so I decided to go with a brown and yellow combo. I used some Origins BG papers and brown and yellow card stock. The image was colored with Copics and framed with Circle Nestabilities. I've stitched the edges on the sewing machine. Then I embellished with ribbon, a charm and hemp twine, roses, and sticky pearls.

This card also fits the challenges at:
Allsorts: In Stitches
Secret Crafter: A Day Out

If you're up for a challenge, be sure to join us this week at The Pixie Cottage!

Happy Stamping,
