Pretty Pixies and paper piecing!

Welcome to the Once Upon a Wednesday challenge with the Pixie Cottage. This week we have an awesome team sketch and our theme is paper piecing. You can choose to use our theme or sketch or both! Michelle has a wonderful prize for our winner so make sure to enter your creations!
For my card this week I used Alisa Ramirez' Ballerina Fairy Taking a Ride. I paper pieced her dress and shoes with Scenic Route papers and her wings using a super high shimmer paper I had in my stash. I used Wild Orchid flowers and this beautiful ruffled ribbon from The Paper Temptress.
Make sure to see the other stunning creations from the Design Team.

Blog Hoppin with Skipping Stones and a special release!

Welcome to Skipping Stones Design’s special Blog Hop to celebrate the release of two new stamp sets, "Fangs or Fur" and Chocolate Vol. 2. This is our "sweetest" release yet, whether you're a Twilight fan or a chocolate lover, we have something for you!! If you just happened upon my blog today, you’ll want to go back to the beginning at Skipping Stones Design. You should have arrived from the fabulous Erin Grotegut's blog.

Combined with the blog hop today, it's also Skipping Stones Sketch Tuesday which means the Design Team is showcasing another great creation from Teri Anderson. We'd love for you to play along with the sketch. Just remember to use the keywords SSD031 if you are uploading to any online galleries or link your card at the Skipping Stones Blog. We'll be looking soon for Guest Designers so you never know....

I used the brand new Fangs and Fur set this week and I am just in LOVE with both the Edward (above) and the Jacob (HERE) stamps. This is such a fun set. I cut out the circles for my top layer using spellbinders and embossed it with a Cuttlebug folder. I popped up the top layer to make a window and used a spectacular shimmery ribbon for my bow. Isn't that sentiment hilarious!

Here is the order of the HOP!
