Once Upon a Wednesday...Anything but a card!


It's time for another Once Upon A Wednesday at The Pixie Cottage and another sketch from our fabulous Special Guest Sketcher Jay Jay!



Along with the sketch we have the added challenge of making "Anything But A Card"
You don't have to use a Pixie Cottage Stamp to enter but if you do have why not try out!
Remember you can use the sketch, the theme or both and can combine our challenge with any others you like!


I used the Stargazer Lily by ArTish for my journal. I just love this stamp, it always turns out so beautiful. I colored the using tombow markers and a waterbrush.
