Afternoon everybody, how are you? We are having a quiet Sunday - I've been faffing about with a couple of cards and Toad has been building a station for his model railway layout. It struck me as very funny that you could buy flat-pack buildings. You should see how tiny the pieces are - iddy-biddy - and it even comes with tiny sets of curtains for the windows!
With all the Christmas cards I've been making lately I've had to remind myself that it is still August and have made a summery feel CAS friendship card today that I would like to enter in the CRAFT Challenge of Fairies.
This is another stamp that I'd been hankering after for a little while and it finally plopped onto the doormat last week. It's "Faye & Freddie" from Sugar Nellie. I've painted with Distress Inks (ReInkers) and used some Prima papers to frame it and for the corners that are Cheery Lynn dies. The sentiment is Hero Arts.
I've also been playing around with a Less is More challenge card but I think I might have to bin it and start again - it's just not floating my boat at the moment!
Hugs, Sxx

A really lovely frame for this gorgeous fairy image, and a very true message too.
Awww hun, this is sooooo cute! I'm loving this image and you've coloured it so beautifully. Beautiful message too :) Hmm, I'm thinking I shouldn't have drunk all that coffee at the party - I'm super wired now. They'll be no sleep 'til Thursday! Hugs, Jayne xx
Such pretty colours, and that stamp gives you lots of scope for choice, doesn't it?
Happy August Bank Holiday Monday to you. Nice weather for ducks eh? Quite a good excuse to stay in crafting and keeping the fur dry though.
