It's Wednesday so it means another challenge here at The Pixie Cottage!
As always we have 2 parts to the challenge and you can choose either or both to play along with.
We have a fabulous sketch and our theme this week is "Grab A Glass of Lemonade"
For the theme we are looking for something yellow or lemony or just simply something to cool you down on one of these hot summer days!


Remember you can use the sketch or the optional technique or both!
The randomly picked winner will win two stamps of their choice from the Pixie Cottage Collection. The winner and the Top 3 favorites will be announced on the Friday after the challenge ends.

We have the fabulous Karen Howard from Feline Creative joining us today and she made this super card using A Rose and Her Trio Digital Image by ARTish
