Preview of the new February release over at All That Scraps!

When I first started making cards (over 3 years ago now) and one of the very first stamps I bought was a CC Designs one - I couldn't resist the sweet images and lovely sentiments which I use over and over again even now.  Well, I was thrilled to be asked to join the DT over at All That Scraps a few weeks ago - woo hoo!!!  Not only do I own a numerous amount of these babies, I get to use all the newbies before their release - WOO HOO!!

So, here is my very first DT card for the Feburary preview for All That Scraps where we are showcasing the new CC Designs Swiss Pixies...



Not only is this newbie as sweet as they come, she is also a fairy - and you all know how much I love my fairies!  This is Pixie Lucy with that sweet sentiment from the AmyR Be Happy sentiment set.

I also used the new Mushroom Border die - I first die cut it using Make It Colour blending card and coloured the stems and grass in using my Copics.  I then used the border die using dark orange cardstock, shading the mushroom heads with Copics, cut them off and stuck them onto the heads of the mushroom stems.  Here's a closer look...



This mushroom border die is just so sweet and versatile!  I also used lots and lots of Glamour Dust on her wings - she pops off the page!  I think you'll agree that this is a gorgeous new release and they will be available in the All That Scraps store on Thursday at 10pm CT!

Okay, that's enough excitement from me today!  You should check out the rest of the gorgeous Swiss Pixies previews over at the blog here and enter your name for a chance to win goodies from the February release!!
