Merry Thursday to you all and here we go with a new challenge at Crafty Little Fairies where the theme is...
THINGS WITH WINGS
It's another double sponsor week with prizes from...
with a surprise goody bag
AND
with this lovely prize;
Now, if you are wondering about my post title, it's because I have gone for an A5 shape card, which I almost never do. I was having one of those days where I thought I would deliberately push myself out of my comfort zone and I ended up being really happy with the layout :-)
And to be fair, the rest of the stuff on this card is well and truly in my comfort zone; the Maja DP, stitching, tags and ribbon/twine combo!
It was lovely to use this Saturated Canary image again and I do think she suits unusual coloured hair! And a little sparkle for the fairy dust of course :-)
