I told myself a little story when I designed this card. The child has been busy building his castle using his building blocks. He is now trying to cast a magic spell to make his toy castle into a real one.

All the elements bar the little “wizard” are created using the dies and cardstock. The “wizard” is stamped and die-cut. There is co-ordinating paper and the dies do cut out some of the images. In the example below I’ve used the image from the paper.

I’m so happy with the way this has turned out. He reminds me of a children’s tv show I used to watch called “Captain Pugwash”. I think I still have some of the storybooks but not sure where. Perhaps in a box somewhere. The pirate is coloured in using the Stampin’ Blend Alcohol markers. I made the rock he is standing on using the Painted Texture 3D embossing folder.

I have a gift bag to share with you today using the Fable Friends stamp set. This is an amazing set and perfect children as well as anyone who loves cute and cuddly things.

I love the different blues in this bag. The night of navy really makes the whole thing pop. This bunny rabbit is so cute. He reminds me of cuddly toys and happy children. I am a sucker for cute and cuddly. I still have many of my cuddly toys from childhood including one bear that has travelled all over the world with me.

This bunny is coloured in using the Stampin’ Blends. The blends are fast becoming one of my favourite colouring mediums. You just need to remember to stamp your image in Memento ink as opposed to Stazon.
