Crafty Little Fairies DT - Things With Wings


Good morning everyone, and welcome to this week's Crafty Little Fairies challenge. This week it's the turn of the Pink Fairies, and it's my turn to host the challenge this week - yippee!

Thanks as always to everyone who entered last week's Saturday Night at the Movies challenge - we all enjoyed looking at your cards, and I had a great (but difficult!) time choosing the top 3. Don't forget to pop over to the main challenge blog to see if you are a top 3 or prize winner!

Anyhoo, moving on to this week's challenge, we have a lovely easy peasy theme for you, which is

Things With Wings

A very versatile theme I'm sure you'll agree.

We are very pleased this this week to have not one but two sponsors :


with this gorgeous prize package


and


Please remember that to be eligible for either of these two fab prizes you will need to use a stamped image (inked or digi) as the main focus of your project.

The rest of the pink fairies really loved this one and created some fabulous inspirational cards - here's what I did.


I've said it before but I don't mind saying it again ... this adorable bunny is my absolute favourite stamp of all time ... bunny's innocent wondrous expression as he reaches out towards the butterfly just makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside!! Also the prominence of the butterfly in the image means it always comes straight to mind for any "things with wings" challenges!!
