The Pixie Cottage Challenge #16 - Floral Fantasy - Guest Sketch

It's Once Upon a Wednesday again at The Pixie Cottage and we have a super Special Guest Sketcher for you today.
It is the fabulous Jacque from Jacques Magnolias and she came up with this fantastic sketch for us.


Please drop over and leave her some love, she is genuinely one of the nicest crafters I've ever met.
Also todays card features some of the fabric flowers I showed you in Saturdays tutorial, if you missed it you can see all the details HERE

Of course I added a few other challenges along the way to help:

Crafty Catz - Stitching
Stamptacular Sunday - "Sew" Special
Daring Cardmakers - Die Cuts
Sew Many Challenges - Anything Goes
Our Creative Corner - Blooming Blossoms
Creative Craft Challenges - Blooming Marvellous
One Stitch At A Time - Flowers
Wee Memories - Flowers
Tellens Place - Flowers
Die Cut Dreams - Make Your Own Flowers
Pollycraft - Make Your Own Flowers
Stempeltraeume - Animals
The Pink Elephant - Aqua



Card Recipe:
Image - Buffy the Bunny and Little Chick by Alisa Ramirez for The Pixie Cottage
Paper - DCVW Nanas Nursery Baby Boy
Medium - Copic Markers
Border punches - Martha Stewart Iron Gate and Daisy Dot
Fabric - Walmart
Brads - K&Co
Sentiment - Fiskars
Die Cut - Spellbinders Label 11
Embossing Folder - Sizzix



Inside is more dp and a faux stitched message mat



Here you can see I popped up the flower on Buffys headband and tried to coordinate the colors with the fabric for the flowers.
I hope you like this and we'd love to have you join in with the challenge over at The Pixie Cottage

    Love the flowers you made. I actually went and got myself some of those "make-your-own-button-from-your-fabrics" kit as soon as I saw your tutorial. Can't wait to make a decoration for one of my bags!

    Katie, your card is just so cute. I love the bunny with her cute little headband. The colors are fresh and I'm jealous of the stitching. I can never get my right.
