The Pixie Cottage Challenge #44 - Sketch and/or 2 Colors Only


We have another fabulous sketch for you and it gives you a lot of scope for adding your own twist to it.


In addition to the sketch we have the optional challenge of using just 2 colors on your project. You can use different shades of the same color but just two main color families.
As always 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.

First we have a card from our superb Guest Designer this month and that is Dorcas!


And then the team did a superb job with both the sketch and the theme this week:
