The Pixie Cottage Challenge #58




Good Morning! I sure hope all is going well with each of you. Thanks for stopping by and checking out my new card. I am still so sick. It must be age!! However, I haven' t given up yet.
Today I created a card for The Pixie Cottage Challenge # 58.
You can click on the link and have a peek at the challenge.
This week was a sketch and/or something cute. We all know that I am going to use a sketch! I am not as talented as some (most) of these women in the cyber world.
Ok, now my card. My stamped image comes from the Wagon Full of Fun made by Stampin' Up. The duck was a neccessity purchase (my last name). hehehe I stamped him and the words Lucky duck using Stazon. I paper pieced the scarf around his neck to match the DP I used for the strip. I also attempted a first. I dyed and cut a flower out of coffee filters. It is suppose to look like a daffodile. I usually sit and read blogs with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine so it seemed only right to use filters. Plus I tried pulling off wine labels and that bites! Sorry I digress. I also used Spellbinders Scalloped Circles. I forgot to mention in my last post that I used Spellbinders Inverted Squares in my design and left someone guessing. I apologize. I finished the card with a few dew drops from The Robins Nest.


I hope you enjoyed my card. Thanks again for coming by and checking out my blog. I pray you each have a wonderful day. Later, Linda

  2. What a cutsie cute card, love all the layers Linda. The coffee filter flower turned out amazing and what a wonderful idea. You even dyed it? How did you do that?
    This was a fun post, I really enjoyed it. Now I think you should use one of those wine labels on a project, that would be too cool
