**MAGICAL SYMBOLS** Fantasy Inspired IG Hop

Hi everyone! Welcome to the Fantasy Inspired Instagram Hop! Here, you will find cards inspired by various fantasy based themes! This is a monthly hop on the 1st Sunday at 10 AM CST – please message @bkeeleycrafts for more info if you’d like to join.

This month’s theme is Magical Symbols!

I have all these Celtic border dies, bought because they give me Charmed vibes. I love how cutting them out is foiled cardstock and gluing them on a patterned paper made this card come together just like that.

Just a few challenges:

**SCOTLAND OR IRELAND** New Post with Fantasy Inspired IG Hop!!

Good morning, everyone!!  Today is the first Sunday of the month, and that means it's time for the Fantasy Inspired Instagram Hop!  I'm sharing my card here as well as on my IG, @royalpumpkinart.

Our theme this month is Ireland or Scotland, and honestly I've got a tiny bit of each in my ancestry, but I really don't think I have any Scottish stamps or dies (except maybe for a Scottie dog!) so I went with Ireland.  I used old Spellbinders dies to create this card and added the fairy for a bit of fantasy and whimsy!
