Crafty Little Fairies Challenge ...............

Hi everyone, time for another challenge at Crafty Little Fairies and our theme for you this month is 'Spots and Stripes'.  As always there are some some wonderful prizes for the winners. 

I've used one of my new LOTV stamps that I brought from the LOTV shop when I attended their Birthday event recently. I thought I should use some bright colours for a change give you all a little break from the pink that you are normally greeted when you visit my blog!

Thanks so much for stopping by.

A Fairy Card and The Fairy Fair ............

Hi everyone I have  a fairy card and a photo of me and Grace at the Fairy Fair to share with you today.  Me and Grace went the Fairy Fair on Sunday which is held in Holt in Norfolk 2 - 3 times a year.  It is a great day all the children come dressed up and there are lots of lovely craft stalls selling fairy themed items, they hold fairy and elf workshops for the children to attend and lots of other things too. This is me and Grace meeting a couple of the fairies:

So back to my fairy card which I made for one of Grace's little friends whose Birthday it was a few weeks ago.  I have used a topper from the Angelica and Adam cd by Crafter's Companion and some papers by docrafts, flowers from Wild Orchid, Memory Box butterfly die and a fiskars boarder punch.

Crafty Ribbons Challenge .............

 Hi everyone, I have my DT creation for Crafty Ribbons to share with you today.  I set the theme for this week's challenge which is 'Drive Time'.  I decided to make a pencil case now I have got the hang of how to do zips which I am very pleased about!  I have used some of the lovely wide Cars and Trucks Ribbon from Crafty Ribbons on my pencil case to decorate it with.  It was nice to be able to come up with a creation for the boys as they are always so much harder to craft for!   I think I will be giving this to my Nephew for Christmas so I hope he likes it!

I would like to enter my creation into the Link party at Button and Paint who are hosting the party for Ho Ho Ho and on we sew link party for May.  The idea of the link party is to make a Christmas present each month, so now I have found out about the link party I am going to try and enter it every month.  It does feel nice to be getting ahead with my presents for a change!

Thanks for stopping by.
