Just had to show you this!!!!!!!!

I have to tell you I was thrilled when I received an email showing me this adorable card.  The Pixie Cottage and Magnolia Stamps together are always a favorite of mine!! And Nanda did a wonderful job of combining the two. Doesn't little Tilda look like she is going to pop off the page?  You have to stop over at her blog and see all her other wonderful work.

What a great card Nanda! So glad you agreed to share it with us!

I would love to see what others have done with The Pixie Cottage Stamps.  Email me at casdanben@aol.com and give me a link to your project!

Some Cards to Share

I wanted to show some card that use the latest Pixie Cottage Background stamps by Sandra Hammer.

Last week I posted this card along with my friend ScrappyJan who posted her own card.

The first card is Jan's

I also recently finished this card

All three show the wonderful work of Sandra Hammer.  The background stamps are available for order HERE

I am sure you noticed we have used Magnolia Stamps with The Pixie Cottage background stamps.  Sandra has a lot of images that work wonderfully with the Tilda stamps.  So be certain to check them out. (You can find Magnolia stamps at the same site HERE)

The Spooky Tree is available now and the Eerie Books is coming soon, available for preorder NOW!!

Thanks for dropping by

The Pixie Cottage Challenge #32 - Guest Sketch and/or Anything But A Card

It's time for another Once Upon A Wednesday and another sketch from our fabulous Special Guest Sketcher Jay Jay!



This sketch is designed to go with our special challenge of "Anything But A Card".
It is a great card sketch but we'd like you go a step further and make something with it other than a card.
Obviously this is just an option on the challenge but after seeing what the team made I hope you'll be inspired.

Jay Jay made us this superb example using Sandra Hammer's gorgeous Winter Door stamp and I know I want to try a chocolate wrapper after seeing this.







You don't have to use a Pixie Cottage Stamp to enter but if you do have why not try out!
Remember you can use the sketch, the theme or both and can combine our challenge with any others you like!

One randomly picked winner will get their choice of 2 Pixie Cottage Stamps and the Design Teams Top Three entries will get to display the winners badge on their blog.
Winners will be announced on the Friday following the end of the challenge.

Our guest designer for both July and August is Lisa and she has started us off with this wonderful creation.



Here are the team's creations this week!
