Fluttering for Santa

I think this little fairy is about the cutest that I’ve seen!

09-11-18 She just couldn’t stay awake any longer. She’s my kind of fairy though; leaving cupcakes for Santa!!! She even left some carrots for the reindeer.

The challenge at Flutterby Wednesday this week is open. You must have a butterfly or fairy on your creation or, if your making a holiday card, you can have an angel.

This adorable fairy is from Charmed Cards and Crafts and I watercolored her. I cut the card base with the Winter Woodland cartridge and the weld feature in Design Studio. I then cut a red scallop circle to the same size and a circle out of the green. I cut and matted the fairy with my nesties. The DP is Debbie Mumm and the ribbon is Bazzil Basics.

If you would like to play along with the Flutter By Wednesday challenge, you can go check out all of the other lovely DT blogs by clicking on their links on the right sidebar and then going to Danni’s Dreams to link up your card. Danni has also mentioned that since the holidays are right around the corner, angels "flutter by" too so feel free to add angels to your creations for the holidays.

Challenges:
The Pink Elephant -- sketch
Cupcake Craft -- digi image

justbutton3 Today is also a new challenge at Just Buggin’. The challenge this week is to have at least three Cricut die cuts on your project. You can make anything you'd like as long as it fits with the current challenge. The creations by the design team are being posted each day of the week so check every day to be inspired. My day is Tuesday so I’ll be posting my creation on Tuesday.

Blessings,

Christine
