QUIXOTIC CHALLENGE #12 - I BELIEVE IN FAIRIES!


Evening bloggers!Hope you're all well?...my cold is finally going but I now have a bad back :( was lifting something and stood up too quickly and well OUCH!i'm really starting to feel old lol

Today's card is for this week's QUIXOTIC CHALLENGE which is 'I believe in fairies'.I've used one of my fave C.C. Designs stamps, Liesel and her wheelbarrow which I have coloured with Polychromos.I've kept the card quite simple using only coloured DCWV cardstock...thought i'd challenge myself to make a card without patterned paper (which i absolutely love using on my card's) and it was'nt so bad lol... not sure how soon i'll do it again though!I've used ribbon from hobbycraft,MS heart punch,Papermania CCSR sentiment and a little handstitching.

Well enjoy your evening and thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment :) xx
