Taking it slowly....

Well, not me personally - this week has flown by, it's been manic!!  I've got so much to think about at work and home and I haven't even spent any time studying - really gotta get going on that!

Anyhoo, the title of my post refers to this little cutie using lots of lovely Quixotic Paperie stash!

 
 

Isn't he a sweetie?  This is one of the new Emerald Faeries called Boo & Snookie (aren't they the best names ever?!!).  I used my Sew Easy Tool with the Zig Zag Piercer Head and finished it off with flowers using the Marianne D creatables Chinese Rose dies and beadsQuixotic Paperie has run out of the brown felt ribbon, but you can buy it in other colours here.

I used the Prima Madelaine paper that is unfortunately out of stock now, but there are a host of gorgeous Prima pads in including the latest arrivals which came today here!



I am entering my card into the following challenges:

Paper/cardstock: Bazzill cardstock, Prima Madelaine
Stamps: Emerald Faeries Boo & Snookie
Mediums: Copics, Distress Ink in Antique Linen
Accents: floss and organza ribbon from stash, brown felt ribbon,
beads
Tools:
Marianne D creatables Chinese Rose, Sew Easy Tool with the Zig Zag Piercer Head, Distressing Tool, Nestabilitie dies

I'm loving these new little fairies Mary - I think this one is even cuter that the mushroom hugger!

I went to St Luke's yesterday to pick up last months cards - THANK YOU SO MUCH for your huge bundles - your cards sold so well last time I'm thrilled to have more for our big event over the bank holiday weekend.

I'm thinkin' of unsubscribing from your blog, though....it's because of you that I found Quixotic and it's costin' a flippin' fortune...I order more stuff before the last lot arrives!....stop it, woman!
