Hold on to your dreams

(Please scroll down for my MilkCoffee Stamps DT post!)


There's a new fortnightly challenge over at Little Miss Muffet starting today and the theme is 'anything but square'.  So we wanna see anything that isn't your usual square - but of course if you a image you can make whatever you want!  I decided to use the sweet, playful Nightwind from the new release Hills of Mooradale range...




I love these beautiful images by illustrator Simply Sophia!  And did you see - no designer paper!  I usually rely on them so much but I didn't think this beauty needed anything to detract from it.  The sentiment is from the CC Designs Sweet November A Little Bit Of Magic Sentiments set and I used My Favorite Things Die-NamicsJumbo Cloud STAX and sun die.

This is also my last DT make for Little Miss Muffet  :(  I have loved being on this team but I've made more lovely lovely friends who I'll stalk regularly still!  I hope you get to play along - link up your non-square projects here!




 I am entering my card into the following challenges:

Love this unusual card shape, also well done on the not relying on DP, I find that hard to do myself as I love the stuff so much. A pity we won't be seeing any more LMM DT stuff on your blog, as these images are proper cute!
