Pixie Spiderweb Card
by Amanda Coleman

Hi everyone!  Amanda here with a couple of fun ways to Pixies on your holiday cards.  Pixies are made of sturdy plastic and are really easy to cut into custom sized pieces.

I created a happy little spider web by trimming black Pixies into various lengths.  I started by adhering the Pixies that radiate from the center of the web and then trimmed smaller lengths to make a spiral around the center.

The little spider Doodad flair is the perfect anchor for the Pixie spider web.

Pixie Cupcake Card
by Shellye McDaniel


For my first card I used the Pixies in a couple of ways:  as the sprinkles on top of the cupcake and as an outline to the pattern on the cupcake liner.


Because the Pixies are hollow in the center, it's easy to hand-stitch them with a needle and thread just as you would a bugle bead!  To the cupcake 'liner' I outlined the chevron pattern with pieces of Pixies.


And don't forget...you can add your own banners to the sticks or use the assortment packs, which are available in the newest themes.

Boo-tiful Halloween Cards
by Kathy Martin

Hey Doodlebugs! Kathy Martin here with a project share using the fabulous new Pixies and Halloween Parade line! Pixies have become a new favorite accent of mine! They're colorful and fun and I can't wait to decorate my next batch of home-baked cupcakes with them! I've already used them on a number of projects and today's goal was to step outside the box a little and find a couple unique ways to use them. For the spider web card I thought they looked fun as part of a cluster of elements accented with the Doodlebug Washi and for the second card I made little squares to frame my embellishments.
