Guest Blue Fairy!!!!

Hello to my lovely crafty friends and what a great day it is as I am sharing my first card as a
Crafty Little Fairies Guest Designer!! Whoo hoo!! The utterly fabulous Squirrel asked me to play along with the Blue Fairies for a month or two and how could I refuse!!? 

The theme this week is Kraft so not too hard then, as we all have kraft card stashed away somewhere.

So, without further ado here is my interpretation...hope you like it!!



Kraft card, of course, forms the base and I then ran a second piece  through the GC using a very old Provocraft embossing folder. This was mounted (on foam pads) atop a scrap of Nitwits paper and I then coloured the adorable Dandelion Clock to match. There is also a flittering of stardust stickles to her wings.
A clearly besotted sentiment onto a IO die flag tag and that's it!!

You will find my card here

oooh this is gorgeous Sarah, love the layout, I so often just use kraft for matting and layering as opposed to it being a main feature, but I might have to take some inspiration from what you've done here!

well done you on the GDT spot too xx

Hi Sarah, oh wow how lovely to get a GDT with the Fairies! Their challenge is one of the reasons I started a blog - to join in! Unfortunately I never won a single one of their challenges and now I hardly join in at all due to lack of time!! Still you can still dream can't you!

Gorgeous card - really pretty image and the embossing on the Kraft is a lovely touch.

Sarah

PS - Was so sorry to hear about Mog, always difficult to let a pet go. The might have little feet but they leave a big print on the heart.
