Mary Had a Little Lamb

What a fun theme Nettie has come up with at Polkadoodles this week "Nursery Rhymes".

In case it's not obvious, mine is Mary Had a Little Lamb, all the right elements on the Back to Nature CD and I couldn't resist adding some cotton wool to the lamb which I decoupaged with three layers. The little girl is Beviboo one of the Fairy Flutterfly stamps, also decoupaged after colouring with Prismacolor pencils. I masked her before adding the layers and created a scene with an assortment of stamps.

A fence border using the Martha Stewart punch, a computer generated verse and flowers re sized from the All Around CD.

Funky fairy


A scheduled post and all going to plan we are in France and tomorrow is the wedding........our second eldest son and his French fiancee are getting married in the beautiful surroundings of the French coastal fishing village of Saint-Gilles Croix-de-Vie.

Although she had lived in the UK for many years, her Mother still lives in the French village, her Father in Paris, so it was decided they would return there for the wedding. I think the fact that the surf is good on that part of the coast might have played just a tiny part in our boys decision to suggest that as the venue. I have visions of him arriving at the Church still in his wetsuit and board under his arm. And of course the honeymoon venue of Barbados is also well known for it's good surf, so you decide what swayed the decisions ! More about it all in my post tomorrow.

Today is Polkadoodle day and for this weeks challenge Lou has set us the theme of "Sew & Sew". Not my hot point, but I did managed a line of stitching round the edge of my backing paper which is from the new All Around CD. The fairy is Grace, one of the Fairy Flutterfy stamps, which I coloured with Copics and decoupaged. Her winds are stamped onto the same paper then again on acetate and glittered. Martha Steward double loop border and Magnolia flower plus a couple of others and some glittered leaves.
