Wish upon a Star

Anyone else struggling to concentrate on anything or is it just me that's feeling extremely unsettled? 

I turned to a few challenges this week to help get back into crafting after spending some time away as my husband was furloughed from work for three weeks.

Anyway, I was intrigue by the CASology cue word of Zodiac and turned to Freshly Made Sketches for a starting point...




I decided to use the little fox from Lawn Fawns Wish upon a Star stamp set and placed the Scorpio constellation above him.  Coloured with Prisma pencils and sparkle.




The sentiment is from the same set and I used the matching dies to get the tiny trail of stars.

I decided not to ground the fox this time... I liked him just the way he turned out :)

  1. This is such a brilliant and cute design with that fun little fox and star formation above him! Way to work those challenges together to come up with a fabulous little card! I LOVE it! Count me among those who are perplexed and unable to function as usual. The frustration mounts and just sends my brain as far away as possible it seems. Do take care and hopefully we'll all manage to recover soon from this hopeless situation we've been thrust into unwillingly. hugs!

  13. Gorgeous card Claire, love that cute fox wishing on a star!! Yes, I devour lots of Christmassy books, the best one last year was Another Day in Winter by Shari Low. I have recently read two corkers, 34 days and Strategy by the same author, Anita Waller. Any recommendations greatly appreciated!!
