a Pixie project

Ever since I made this watering can, I have been wanting to try the other watering can template I had.  It only took me almost a year.  lol.  It is a fun template, though, so I guess it was worth the wait.  You can find the source of this template here.

I thought this would be the perfect project to use with Christine’s Swiss Pixie kit.  I started with some nice double-sided paper for the can.  I like to use the reverse sides for the handles and spout.

The images were colored with Copics and carefully cut out with a craft knife and scissors.  This pattern makes a watering can that is triangular in shape.  On the second side I placed the fence image and only some Primas were added to the back.

Here’s some close-ups so you can see the intricate cutting.  I just realized that I missed a tiny white spot under one of her wings.  It’s too late to cut that out so I may need to go back and color it in.  oops!  I love these sweet images…the girl was cut out separate and placed on top of the wheelbarrow.  The cutting was a little tricky around the flower and butterfly…lol…but it wasn’t too bad to cut.

And here’s the fence…the grass part wasn’t too difficult either…just a little time consuming. 

Enjoy the last moments of the weekend!  It’s almost Monday….sigh.
