Finally, a card!  I’m now back in full swing in the craftroom, thank goodness.  I simply couldn’t wait to play with this gorgeous image from C.C Designs – Heidi, one of the Swiss Pixies.  Isn’t she adorable?  She’s in stock now at Quixotic Paperie, selling fast but more on the way!

C.C. Designs - Swiss Pixies - Heidi - Card

I have followed this week’s Sketch Saturday Challenge sketch, although I have rotated it. 

The papers are from the delicious My Mind’s Eye Bloom & Grow 8×8 pack.  Totally in love with these and I think they’re a perfect match for the Swiss Pixies: Heidi and Gretel.  The buttons are from one of the Mixed Shapes bags.

Heidi has of course, been coloured with Copics, and you will find the list at the end of the post!

C.C. Designs - Swiss Pixies - Heidi - Card Detail

Heidi’s wings have been coloured with Copics and then covered in Shimmerz – Candlelight to give her some sparkle.  I’ve also added Shimmerz to the punched leaves behind the flower.  Shimmerz are due in stock at Quixotic Paperie very soon!

The flower I created by layering some of the gorgeous Petaloo flowers in the Sunken Treasure – Teal/Brown dahlia box.

The gorgeous Crochet Ribbon has proved quite popular at Quixotic Paperie, and new stock has arrived, including two new colours – Brown (used on this card) and a rather yummy Parrot Green.  We now also have Metallic Crochet Ribbon, in Gold and Copper.

Phew, I feel better now!  Thank you to everyone who has stopped by in the past week, you’re all very much appreciated.  I’m still trying to catch up on visiting everyone – you’re all so busy creating wonderful things!  Definitely need some extra hours in the day.

Finally – Happy 4th July to all my readers from the US!
