It's another Once Upon a Wednesday at The Pixie Cottage and along with a great sketch we have the theme of "Fussy and Fancy". It's time to go all out and add embellishments, ribbons, lace, embossing, anything you like, just make it as fussy and fancy as you can!

Card Recipe:
Image - I Luv My Blankie by Alisa Ramirez
Medium - Copic Markers
Paper - Preppy Princess by DCWV
Doily Die - English Tea Party by Cheery Lynn Designs
Oval Die - Spellbinders
Flower Dies - Floral Doily Accents by Spellbinders
Sentiment - Craft Essentials by Joanns



This was the fabulous sketch we had this week.



This one of the brand new rubber stamps just released and oh how sweet it is!
I stamped it with Rich Cocoa Memento ink instead of the usual Tuxedo Black as I think it went better the fur on the bear.
I really layered on the details on this, so much fun to do!
Be sure to grab your embellishments and come along and play with us in The Pixie Cottage this week :)

    Katie, what a perfect way to use the pearls! I just got this doily die and now you've given me a new inspiration for it. Thanks for playing at Tuesday Throwdown this week. :-)
