On A Mission ...

... a Mission To Create  that is ... 




It seems so long since I did any challenges and sometimes given a recipe (of sorts) can kick start my creativity ... give me inspiration when I'm lacking ...
So today having seen the lovely creations done by the DT, I took up the challenge at Mission To Create which is to make a card using 3 - 5 of the following concepts ...
1. Gingham patterned Paper
2. Use the colour purple
3. Make a banner
4. Pop dot your photos
5. Stitching


I kind of went with all 5 ...



Used my little fairy stickers again ... pop dot were used both on the banner and the leaves - stitching is something I'm not sure I can live without ... love how much impact it makes ... Of course there is a purple banner and gingham and just a couple of little extras ....

Thank you to all of you who left sweet comments yesterday ... I did get a good nights rest ... and I did debate whether I should have shared the events with you ... but you know, this is me - my life - my  journey - so yes, I have no hang ups about sharing real life ...

Till soon

Ros

Hi Ros,
don't worry too much, sometimes it's better to share thoughts and feelings than to keep them locked up inside :-)
What a lovely fairy card you've made today! It's very sweet, love the details!
Have a great weekend, ~Ira

Very sweet card, I love the Flower Fairies. I'm sorry to read your previous post. I don't understand how people can behave like that.

It helps to be able to share things Ros and ultimately this is YOUR blog and it is yours to share not only your fabulous creations, but your thoughts and feelings as well. I'm glad you had a good nights sleep last night. This card is sooooooo completely fantabulous!

Love this Ros, love the fairy, the leaves, just so whimsical and kind of my thought of having Pixie Dust Paperie, I love the feel of it!
Of course there are many yummy details, the color purple with that gingham banner, the colors and effect of those leaves, oh just way to much to list all....
By the way, the dress form is from the craft secret image I bought in Chicago CHA.

Can't imagine how distressing it's been. Glad you and your family are all right. And that crafting brings some peace and sense of balance.
