Holly Pixie Card
Hi crafters! Need a fabulous Christmas card and quick? Pixie Powders are the answer! Look at the beautiful mica sheen on this one from them!
The finished dimensions are 7" x 8 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x

Good Morning Sue. Beautiful sample this morning Sue and you video is a pleasure to watch. Thankyou Sue. Short post today. My lovely brother passed away yesterday. Sending hugs and best wishes to everyone who needs them this morning. Kind regards Ann Toppcards Leeds.
Hi Sue, morning. I'm loving this beautiful sample it looks clean and fresh, and quick to do if you have the dies at hand, unfortunately I don't but I'm looking forward to watching you put it together. Love n hugs xxx
Good Morning Sue and all What a stunning card this morning , Love the pop of colour created from the pixie powder. Thank you for sharing and creating the video which I will watch a little later. Crafty hugs to all , Wendy
Hello there Sue and all. A gorgeous card and I just love the Pixie Powders you have used. Coincidentally only yesterday I made my first successful Pixie Powder background and am so thrilled with the result. It is so unusual to see you starting a card with coloured cardstock but it works beautifully , Your video is a pleasure to watch. Marie P.
Condolences Ann on the death of your Brother. R.I.P.

Hello Sue. Doesn't the Hayley die look so nice when teamed up with Felicity? I think this card is so striking and who would have believed that it was so quick to make. Love it.
Hello Sue, A really pretty card and I do like the holly border. It doesn't appear to be a simple card to make but I will enjoy watching the video this afternoon. Hugs xx Pauline Sorry to hear about your brother, Ann.
A beautiful traditional Christmas card using those fab Pixie Powders, too. Great idea to use a co-ordinating color card as a background for those pixies. Thank you for sharing and doing the video.
How festive your card looks. The die sets go so well together. And what makes them better? Pixie Powders!! Pixie powders have to be the best creation of the decade. They add so much color and you never know what you're going to get, but whatever it is is bound to be gorgeous. Thanks for sharing the video.
