My last post as a Pixie

Good evening friends! I am here for my last post as a Pixie with Pixie Dust Studio... I have loved my time as a Pixie and I really LOVE Kathy's beautifully drawn characters... I think I might still have to colour them up when I can as they are too cute not to! hehe!

So... anyways..the post today is for the latest Pixie challenge which is to:
make a GIRLY GIRL creation!! Now that I can do no problem!! hehe I have used "Brittney Loves" from the latest collection "LOVE STRUCK".. available in the studio HERE!



Once again combining my love of Instagramming with the need to record the colours I used in the piccy .. this is the result....


Thanks for stopping by! Don't forget to check out the latest Pixie challenge HERE and to go visit all the Pixies to see their beautifully girly creations! I LOVE them all!!!

a Pixie picture challenge

Good morning!!! I am sharing today my card for the latest Pixie Dust Studio challenge... This beautiful image is D is for Dancer from 15 days of the Pixie Christmas.

This week there is a fun pic to use as inspiration... or if you are not keen on using the photo you can use the Colour palette taken from the photo.

Pixie Challenge #94 ... Book or Movie


The NEW challenge at Pixie Dust Studio Challenge blog is to create something based on your favourite book or movie... Kathy has GREAT stamps in the studio that are based on books and movies! so many to choose from... I am not sure exactly what my most favourite book is but have gone with an all time fav of Alice in Wonderland!

I made a very simple bookmark.. as in my opinion you don't want something too bulky in your book to ruin the pages/ stretch the book... just a marker :) But a beautiful image as the focus hehe!

Hop on over to the Pixie Challenge blog to see what all the Pixies love to read and what they have created!!

Pixie of Oz Collection

Yipee!! well .. we are not in Kansas anymore.. we are in Pixie Oz land!! Today is the day that you can pick up these super fun images from the STUDIO!!!!!




I just love all the images... so I was trying to decide how to use them all on the one project ... and I remembered I had a stack of thin canvas boards.. so decided to make a canvas.. then yesterday my G45 Oz paper arrived (Big thanks to Marcia for sending me a Simon Says Stamp voucher!!)
and it all came together... OK ..well it took me a few hours colouring and cutting and then a few more hours sticking, painting etc etc .. but I like how the canvas became a bit of a collage... It shows off all Kathy's adorable Oz creatures!!


Take a walk along the yellow brick road yourself to the Pixie Dust Blog and then along via all the Pixie's personal blogs for a wonderful Oz Adventure!!

I'm a sucker for a fairytale...

as you might have guessed already from my blog and the main cards I mostly make tee hee!!!

Anyway today I've been feeling kind of dreadful and so whilst I was bloghopping on my couch I was reminded about this great new bookclub with a twist... Pixie's Bookshelf and was inspired!

so I jumped onto the itunes store and bought my first ever ebook for my iphone... it was so easy... this is what the cover looked like on my phone.... and I love the way I can choose the book off the bookshelf.. looks like I will be filling up that almost empty bookshelf in my phone. lol!


Anyway.. I made my page nice and big and proceeded to read.... for 2 hours... until I finished! It was a light and fun little read :D and then of course whilst the book was still fresh in my mind I jumped headfirst into the Pixie's bookshelf August challenge... to create a card/project using WINGS!!! (still on the couch)

I used this Pixie Studio image that is supposed to be Romeo and Juliet.... but I think it works as Laurel and David at the fancydress dance ... ok he was in a suit there but this still kinda works right? lol!


I'm now looking forward to reading the next books in the series... I do get "caught" up in a series like this a little too easily... I'm also looking forward to see what comes next at Pixie's bookshelf!! :D

OH, ALICE.....

CHAPTER TWO: Running in a SKETCHY circle...

"Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?"
"That depends a good deal on where you want to get to," said the Cat.
"I don’t much care where--" said Alice.
"Then it doesn’t matter which way you go," said the Cat.

We have a fabulous sketch challenge today designed by our own TWISTED Tea Party member, Mary Giles! Here is the sketch:
We are VERY honored to be introducing our first sponsor to you today. Kathy from Pixie Dust Studios has VERY generously let us work with her new Digis from her "Down the Rabbit Hole" collection debuting March 1st! What's more? ONE LUCKY WINNER will be chosen at random from this week's participants to choose THREE FREE DIGIS of their choice from Pixie Dust Studios! Thank you Kathy!

This is the card that I have created following Mary's lovely sketch!
I have used Pixie - 'Queen of Hearts' image (isn't she sweet) and I coloured her with copics.
I realised afterwards that the Queen of hearts should have a red dress... hahaha! oopsie!
Oh Well I think she looks sweet here! and I don't have much of a brain this week!

You have until FRIDAY, March 5, 2010 at 10pm CST to upload your card or project to the Oh, Alice challenge blog! Can't wait to see what you creat!
