Wee friends

Hey there!

Just a quick pop in to let y'all know that the Fairwee candies are still open through tonight for a chance at winning. And today is also the official Fairwee preview on the ATS blog so you'll want to be sure and get in the drawing over there to win the entire release!
Then tonight is the big night that they will all become available in the ATS store, woot, woot!

My card today is an A2 size (41/4"x51/2") and hopefully you can get an idea of the smaller size of these new stamps. I have wanted some quick and easy to color images for the Sweet November line for quite awhile and the Fairwees are what I came up with for that. Because sometimes I find myself short on crafting time but still want to get in and play so I like having some smaller, less time intensive stamps to choose from. :)

Alrighty then, time for me to scoot... hope you are wrapping up a wonderful weekend!

A 'wee' bit more candy...

Hello again!
Are you ready to go adventuring in Sweet November Land one more time?

I forgot the Mason jar at home today so hopefully luck will be on our side as we try to meet a few more Fairwees. Fairwees
are the smallest of the small inhabitants of this magical place so look high and low, in the mushroom glen and the wildflower fields... is that a bit of dandelion fluff floating on the breeze? No! It's a Fairwee! These wee little fairies may be teeny tiny but they have BIG personalities. :)

Come on, let's make our way past the waterfall and into the hidden glade... I've heard that it's a good spot for Fairwee sightings. Do you hear that? It sounds like a little voice chattering away. Over there! Down by that patch of daisies... it's little miss Mia and boy does she sound like one sassy little Fairwee. Mia means well but she tends to be a bit of a bossy-pants with an attitude big enough for a fairy ten times her size. That poor little bird, it looks like Mia is in high form telling him what's what. ;)
And it looks like she'll be at it for a while so perhaps we should leave them be and see who else is hanging around...
The Fairwee Mia candy kit includes; one Sweet November Mia rubber stamp, ten 6x6 sheets of My Mind's Eye Quite Contrary paper, small acrylic Studio G stamp, Prima flowers and e.line pearls and gems, ribbon, twine, buttons, decorative stick pins, four envelopes, four card blanks and my card.
Well, we've walked and walked and it seems like there are no more Fairwees to find. Let's sit down in the soft, sweet grass and rest a bit while we figure out what to do next but be careful not to cross into those toadstool rings over there... too much magic for us humans to handle.
Sigh
... it's hard not to feel a bit disappointed, but then you feel a tiny little pat on your hand and when you look down there is a Fairwee telling you not to be sad. She smiles big and introduces herself as Josie before settling down on a nearby mushroom. Josie is a laid back and relaxed kind of girl who doesn't let anything bother her and the positive vibes just seem to emanate from her tiny form. And while it would be fun to linger there all day Josie eventually has to take her leave so she flutters into the center of that toadstool ring and disappears with a wink and a grin.

Wow! What a way to wrap up our Fairwee adventures here in Sweet November Land. I think it has been quite a success and I hope you have had as much fun meeting the Fairwees as I have! :)
The Fairwee Josie candy kit includes; one Sweet November Josie rubber stamp, ten 6x6 sheets of Imaginisce paper, small studio G acrylic stamp, Prima flowers and e.line pearls and gems, ribbon, twine, buttons, decorative stick pins, four envelopes, four card blanks and my card.

All you have to do for a chance to win the candy is leave a comment on this post. If you link to the candy on your own blog that is great and much appreciated but not a requirement... I want everyone to be able to play along. And when I say everyone, I mean everyone. I will ship the candy anywhere in the world so everyone is encouraged to play! :)

The candies will stay open through Sunday, July 31st and I will announce the winners on Monday, August 1st. And just so ya know... Sunday night is now the official release date for all of August's new stamps over at ATS!


Don't forget to fly on over to the Sweet November Gals' blogs now... Kiara is once again joining Nancy and Rachel and even though they are playing with the tiny Fairwees all of their cards are BIG on inspiration!
Instead of using random generator I will be printing out names and tossing them in a hat SO if you leave comments for the SN gals on their blogs, you will get an extra name in the hat for each one that you do... this will up your chances of winning the candy... fun, fun, fun! :)


Thank you so much for stopping by for this third and final day of SN previews. I hope that you have enjoyed the sneak peeks of our August release! There will be one more chance to win the entire release when the Fairwees make their appearance at the ATS blog on Sunday, July 31st. You won't want to miss that! :)

This candy can't be contained...

Welcome back to another fun filled day visiting Sweet November Land!

I hope you brought your magnifying glass with you because we are on the search for Fairwees. Fairwees
are the smallest of the small inhabitants of this magical place so look high and low, in the mushroom glen and the wildflower fields... is that a bit of dandelion fluff floating on the breeze? No! It's a Fairwee! These wee little fairies may be teeny tiny but they have BIG personalities. :)

Quick! Grab the mason jar... a-ha! We've caught one! She doesn't seem to mind being contained for the moment as she pipes up and introduces herself as Daphne. Daphne is a go-with-the-flow kind of gal. She will start her day with plans to check out the berry patch but gets sidetracked by the new baby tadpoles swimming in the stream. Following these flights of fancy always lead her to the best of adventures so she wouldn't have it any other way. Now we'll let Daphne go about her merry way with a quick wave goodbye as we set off to see who else we can find...

The Fairwee Daphne candy kit includes; one Sweet November Daphne rubber stamp, ten 6x6 sheets of My Mind's Eye Lime Twist paper, small acrylic Studio G stamp, Prima flowers and e.line pearls and gems, ribbon, twine, buttons, decorative stick pins, four envelopes, four card blanks and my card
Before we can even turn to head off towards the Sunshine Valley this wee will o' the wisp comes floating gently down from the tree branches above. There's no need for the jar, sweet Emaline isn't in any hurry to rush off. In fact, she is quite curious about these strange 'giants' visiting her home. And even if she finds us odd and wingless she is a gracious little hostess who delights in chatting away about all the goings on of Sweet November Land while politely asking about the places that we've traveled from. And as the sun begins to set Emaline is most helpful in directing us back to the way home with well wishes for a safe journey and an open invitation to come back and visit her any time.
The Fairwee Emaline candy kit includes; one Sweet November Emaline rubber stamp, ten 6x6 sheets of Lilybee Picket Fence paper, small studio G acrylic stamp, Prima flowers and e.line pearls and gems, ribbon, twine, buttons, decorative stick pins, four envelopes, four card blanks and my card.
