All the frames were die cut using the Lawn Fawn “Stitched Rectangles” set. The letters were die cut using the Lawn Fawn “Finley’s ABCs” set., earning me +90 cutty XP points. The buttons and sentiment were stamped using a Unity set. </span></div>

The only problem...the field is infested with demons.</span></div>

Slightly annoyed that we had to abruptly end our card duel, my sister and I welcomed the traveller to the Guild Hall; one does not simply turn away a rainbow paladin. She was low on mana and weary from her travels, so the Lady Commander of Copics and I provided her with some tonics and ether potions. </span></div>

She has been holed up since last December, snatching food from the kitchens. As she seemed harmless, and in her boredom reorganized all our Christmas decorations in the attic, we decided to leave her be. </span></div>

Welcome to the Guild Hall. Today we are entertaining a visitor from the far off eastern realm of Aziana. The little botanist brought some rare foreign plants and herbs with her to trade for some of our indigenous flora. This is a great boon to the Crafters Guild as our stocks were running low on these exotic plants. With the cherry blossoms alone we would be able to make numerous tonics and elixirs.</span></div>

Pushing aside a massive boulder, we slipped through the crack in the wall. We had to shimmy sideways to squeeze through the narrow passageway and were grateful when we emerged in a large cavern. The ground was thick with spongy grass and massive trees with colourful flowers filled the area. Before we could attempt to look around, a small, harsh looking fairy fluttered up to us.</span></div>

I started by colouring the Enchanted Design Studio image using Prismacolor pencils, adding some glossy accents to her lips. The background I painted using some airbrushing paint which is super thin and easy to work with. I like using this paint because it’s pretty shiny when the light hits it the right way. </span></div>

Thank you for stopping by the Guild Hall. Today the Lady Commander of Copics and I received a raven from the three pigs of Glendore. It seemed they were having some issues with werewolves ransacking their farm. As tonight was to be a full moon, we decided to head to the pig’s pasture in Glendore and set up a defensive perimeter. </span></div>

The three pigs were squealing in fright and retreated to the safety of their brick farmhouse whilst the Lady Commander and I stood our ground, ready to battle the vicious wolves and save the farm. </span></div>

We rode in silence under the twinkling velvet sky until we reached the aqua sea of grass. Dismounting, I shouldered my satchel and set out, Nikki close behind. Suddenly I spotted what we had come for. Ahead of us, two fairies from rival clans were kissing, their wings shimmering in the moonlight. </span></div>

After ridding the area of those we could find, we helped the unicorn fairies set up some fire beacons around the village to ward off future attacks. The pink flames burned bright, lighting up the black night, hopefully keeping the peaceful unicorn fairies safe. </span></div>

Thank you for stopping by the Guild Hall today. I have made the difficult decision to leave the Creative Card Crew Guild after two years with them. A fantastic set of adventurers, I wish them all the best on their crafty quests. In spite of my sadness at parting from the Creative Card Crew Guild, the Lady Commander of Copics and I still had to attend the union of the Arch Duke of Adhesives and his sticky new bride. The wedding was the perfect chance for one more crafty quest with Creative Card Crew.</span></div>

Standing amidst a sea of pink grass, I thought I spotted two girls frolicking through the tall rainbow coloured flowers that were swaying in a gentle breeze. Wary of their mechanical looking movements, I placed my hand on the hilt of my sword as the Lady Commander and I approached the strangers. </span></div>

She was coloured with Prismacolor pencils which I left unblended for a more sketchy look. The background was made using the Dylusions “Triangles” stencil and Distress Inks. I stamped the sentiment and the flowers in the corner using a couple Unity stamps for a dual strike, dealing massive HP damage.</span></div>

We soon discovered that they had eaten some of the rainbow flowers’ petals and were completely high. Worried for their safety, as the Forbidden Fields are not named such for no reason, we lead the girls to the nearby village where they could safely rest until the effects of the flowers wore off. The Lady Commander and I then started the journey back to the Guild Hall, our bags-of-holding stuffed full of loot from our day of questing.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.15; white-space: pre-wrap;">This tag has two job classes and acts as both a wine tag and a gift card holder. I didn’t have a gift card at home, so made a stand-in for demonstrative purposes. On the block letters, I used a snow pen marker and some Iced Stickles.</span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3WQeS56MUbTZOBTzUQdt5kn6QvGcTifetFnZ2mEI-aKo6kU7dc2k9usNYlgoeKk9JAEQ1Z-2lmV2X0JD90fjRl1y7O0g09K-k9ld_E6S0gGelT5BjAkuv1ddP0frMQmB9JenoR0KJ9Kw/s1600/IMG_1436.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; display: inline !important; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3WQeS56MUbTZOBTzUQdt5kn6QvGcTifetFnZ2mEI-aKo6kU7dc2k9usNYlgoeKk9JAEQ1Z-2lmV2X0JD90fjRl1y7O0g09K-k9ld_E6S0gGelT5BjAkuv1ddP0frMQmB9JenoR0KJ9Kw/s1600/IMG_1436.jpg" height="400" width="210" /></a></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.15; white-space: pre-wrap;">To create the pocket, I simply folded the piece around the main panel and glued it all together. The whole piece was then adhered to the wine tag base. The paper cut to 7.75” x 3.75” and scored at 2.5”. The piece for the pocket was cut to 2.5” x 4.25” and then scored a quarter of an inch on each side to create the flaps to wrap around the main panel of patterned paper. I wanted the pocket a little bigger so more of that great deer paper would be showing, but didn’t want the gift card drowning in the pocket, so when gluing it together I put glue on the entire bottom half (1.25”) so the gift card could stick out the top.</span></div>

I cut the paper to 8.5” x 2.75” and scored at 2.5”. I used a 2” circle punch for the hole because it is literally the only circle punch I own, but I think a smaller one would be better - 1.5” would probably be perfect. The sentiment was stamped with the Dylusions “Christmas Words” set. If this was used on a bottle of vodka, rye, or any other spirit it would really level up the Pun damage of this tag. It’s hard to tell from the picture, but the rectangle of wood paper was cut using the Lawn Fawn “Stitched Rectangles” die set.</span></span></div>

The borders I cut using the Art Philosophy cartridge. The red looked a little </span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: italic; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">blah</span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">, so I used a white gel pen to spruce it up a little, earning +50 accent XP points.</span></span></div>

Today the Lady Commander of Copics and I decided to do some adventuring in the Iced Raspberry Woods. We had received a quest from a gent at the local tavern, tipping us off that this particular forest was flush with rare raspberry balls...if you could make it through the throng of monsters. Raspberry balls contain juices within their tough shell, which can be used as a powerful healing agent if combined into the correct tonic. Angela and I had been questing for upwards of an hour, battling our way through the forest, when we came upon a small ice nymph. Her blue hair sparkled with ice crystals and to our surprise, she was holding onto one of the coveted raspberry balls!</span></div>

As such, the Guardian of Glitter and I seemed to have missed an entire day! This could only be the work of one of those mischievous holly fairies that show up this time of year. Nikki and I cast a locating spell to find the winged trouble maker before it could mess up the flow of time any further. </span></div>
