Whew! Is it hot where you live? I'm melting here in the Sunny South! It's not so much the heat as it's the humidity. I much prefer cool Fall days and Winter. LOVE curling up on the sofa in front of the fireplaceon a cold day! Heaven!
To help us forget about all this hot weather, the challenge this week at Pixie Dust Studio is to make a Christmas or Winter card or project. I had a hard time deciding which Pixie Dust image to color this week. Kathy has so many cute images for Christmas and winter in the
Pixie Dust Studio.
I finally decide on "January Pixie". I think she is so cute! I used blue and white glittered CS as accents on the card. They don't show up so well on the photo. Double click if you want a closer look. I also used my favorite ribbon: wired Organza.
I have a
Pixie Tip for you. See my snowflakes? They were made using a MS Snowflake punch. The "arms" of the snowflake are very fragile and tend to break off. This is what I did. I took some silver wrapping paper and glued it to CS. Then I punched out the snowflakes and glued them to the card. A rhinestone attached to the center was the perfect touch of bling.
I hope you'll join the Pixies for this week's challenge! Enter your project

Great idea on the snowflakes! I have s snowflake punch - will have to try that! Your card with all of the wintery things made me smile. It's already sweltering here. When we got up at 4:15 this morning, I could already feel the humidity! ugh... Lovin' your card, Cat - have a delightful day!
