The linky for Papercrafters' "Anything Goes" Linky Party is at the end of this post.
Saturday again and that means it's time for a new Allsorts challenge as well as a new Linky Party for all papercrafts here on my blog. You can find the linky at the end of this post along with last week's top pick. As always you may link up "Anything Papercrafts" to Papercrafters' Linky Party. (If you're confused about "Ellibelle's Crafty Wednesday" I linked to at the top, it's a new challenge I just started (with a monthly prize). That's in addition to my linky party and it will have a monthly theme.
And here is what I came up with.....
Can you guess which fairy tale it's been inspired by? If you guessed Bambi then you guessed correctly. But I don't blame you if you didn't know, because Bambi is actually a male deer and my card it girly. I am sure everyone is familiar with Bambi from the Disney movie, but did you know "Bambi, a life in the woods" was first published as a fairy tale book in the 1920's? I am sure this story was part of my fairy tale book I had growing up.
I heat embossed the image from Penny Black's Mimi's Love Stamp Set on Bristol Vellum paper then watercolored with my Zig Clean Color Watercolor Markers. Using a circle nestablities die I cut out the image and matted onto a scallop circle. The designer paper is from a 6x6 paper pack by Prima Marketing. Unfortunately I am not sure which pack it came from....The little strip of yellow/green paper is from Stampin up, but long retired. I thought the sentiment I used was perfect for the sweet image, it's from the Penny Black set Sprinkles and Smiles. The flowers were done using the new die set Frames by Penny Black (available in my Etsy shop), the sticky dots were a gift, and I finished off with some natural Burlap Twine. Colored card stocks are by Stampin Up.
If you look really closely then you can see I used a Wink of Stella clear glitter brush on the little butterfly and flowers on the image.
This week at Allsorts challenge we have two wonderful stamps to give away from Bee Crafty I hope you will be able to join us!

Super card Ellie and a cute image and a wonderful design. Bambi, loved the film, think I was 5 and I did cry, a long long time ago now.
I do like to work ahead and therefore I had already panicked before you posted the full details and I did not like to alter my card as Brenda had been so kind as to send me the image.
