Wednesday Challenge ~ Vellum

This Kiki LaRue is simply the cutest! Just when I think Christine will run out of adorable ideas, she wows me yet again. :) Today I challenged the team to use vellum on their project. I made my lace out of vellum. Tomorrow I will have a cool tutorial for you. Have a great day and enjoy the possibilities!

Meet Pippi, isn't she just the cutest dressed up like a pumpkin? These swiss pixies are rocking. I wanted to point out my pumpkins, Kimberly Crawford came up with this fabulous idea to use the Octagon Nestabilities to make pumpkins. I tweaked mine a bit but I wanted to show you hers. They can be seen on her blog here <----. She does fabulous work and I love her fantastic imagination. I never would have thought of this one. :) Thanks for the idea Kimberly! If you head on over to the ATS blog you will be able to have a chance to win this adorable pixie and see more ideas with her.
