Some exciting news, and Dotty with her Snuggle Blanket

I'm so excited that I can finally share some fab news with you !!!

I've been invited by the fabulously talented Gerda of The Stamp Fairy to join her team as a Guest Designer for four weeks.  Her images are some of my favourites, which makes it even more special for me to be asked to join her talented team for a whole month.  Yippee !!!

This is my first card as part of the team, and this week's theme is sketch:


I've used the ultra cute Baby Dotty with her snuggle blanket.  I've coloured Dotty in pink and her blanket in lilac, stamped her twice, cut out the top layer and raised it on sticky pads. I've also chalked around the base image with shimmer chalk. 

The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts, and the lace was some blog candy received from the wonderfully generous Tina.  Finally, I've added some tear-drop gems, a pink ribbon and an "It's a Girl" pink brad (I pulled the metal bits off the back and stuck it on with foam sticky fixers instead).  Isn't she just the cutest!


Please pop over and visit the Stamp Fairy challenge blog to enter your creation for this week's sketch theme, and view the fab creations made by the talented design team.  I look forward to seeing you there. 

Please leave a comment here too, to let me know you've visited.
I've also been inpired by:
Happy crafting everyone.
