Pixie Cottage #23

DSCN8280

This week at the Pixie Cottage, the challenge is a sketch and 'make mine patriotic' (sketch posted below!)'. I used the sketch and the colors red white and blue!! You are free to use the sketch, OR the patriotic theme, OR both! Have fun with it!!! Red, white and blue are not colors I generally use together alot, so this was a challenge for me, but I think it came out ok in the end! I used the Pixie Cottage Stamp Cookie and Caboodle with Roses by Di Carubio. I also included a few other challenges with my entry!!! Here is the list:


1. Pixie Cottage #23 (DT sample!)


2. Paper Playtime #3 , Red, white and Blue
3. Daring Cardmakers: the world is your oyster
4. Crafty Annes Challenge Blog: #16, fly the flag

That's it! Now head over to the Pixie Cottage and check out the rest of the DT's devine creations!!! Thanks for visiting my blog today !
