The Pixie Cottage Challenge #28 - Double Up - Guest Sketch

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




Along with the sketch we have the added option of "Double Up" where we'd like to see you use two stamps on the card (one can be a sentiment)
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!

Now this challenge will be running for 2 weeks instead of one as The Pixies need a little break and so it's vacation time, time to sit back with a Margarita or two and feel the sand between our toes.
So you have no excuse not to join in as you have two weeks to get your card completed and linked for us to see!
