PIXIE COTTAGE CHALLENGE


Wohoo its Wednesday! Are you ready for the new Pixie Cottage Challenge? It is Sparkle! Get out your jewels, stickles, glitter and go for it!! I went for the easy stickles bottles :) My image is the girly girl image Fairy Molly by Eileen Gutierrez found at Michelle's Scrapbooking and More Store.
First I water colored her, stickled up her dress, wings, all the little flowers and then cut out with a Spellbinders scalloped oval. Next I cut a piece of the lavender and did some diagonal embossing. After I rounded the bottom I used the MS hydrangea punch and went around 3 sides then stickled the flower centers. Next was to cut out the purple banner, stickle and attached the sentiment. Lastly dyed some purple ribbon made a bow and added the jewel to the center


Next I made a gate card with a white base and stitched on the pretty little lavender print, did the edge with the Ms scalloped punch and added the scalloped ovals. Used some misc flower punches to make the little flowers for them. I attached the flap with image from the back to come over the top to act as a closure instead of tying it with a ribbon.

For the inside I embossed a piece with dotted swiss folder, added some decorative corners and stamped the sentiment on another piece cut with the Spellbinder oval. Attached another flower.
