Fancy Folds with the Pixie Cottage!

Its Wednesday at the Pixie Cottage and that means it's time for another new sketch from Pam and a new technique challenge to go along with it!


This is a fairly simple sketch as we'd like you to also make the card with a "Fancy Fold"! This can be an easel card, a gatefold, a z- fold, anything other than the regular one fold card. Of course you can just do the sketch but why not fit in both!

Our guest designer for both July and August is Lisa! Make sure to check out her beautiful work.

Card Recipe:

Paper: K&Company DP, Bazzill CS, Paper Temptress Lustre Line
Ink: VersaMark Onyx, Antique linen
Stamps: Simply the Best by ArTish - The Pixie Cottage
Misc: ribbon, spellbinders dies, MS Pearls, Basic Grey Rub-ons.
Fold instructions - SplitCoastStampers

Digi Doodle Shop - Use Your Favorite Stamp 8/12
Craft Your Days Away - Favorite Thing 8/20
Sentiment Sundays - Anything Goes 8/15
Our Creative Corner - Embossing 8/14

Whispering wings


Hi everyone! It's Tuesday again and that means its time for another Skipping Stones Design Sketch Challenge with the Stamp Tramps. We are thrilled to have the talented Maren Benedict join us for the whole month as our Guest Sketch Artist!


Look at this great sketch she provided for us this week!


I used my Whispering Wings and Timeless Textures sets for this fun card with a slightly vintage feel! I say slightly because I am by no means a vintage pro. :)

I can't wait to see what you create!




Skipping Stones Design is having a DT Call until 8/14, so be sure to check out SCS for our post on how to apply and the requirements! This is such a fun group to work with!
