things with wings

Hello again! Did I creep you out enough with my Strange Little People digi? That was fun but I think I started to creep myself out after a bit, lol.

It did get me thinking about Halloween, but I think I'm not really ready to give up on the glitter and sweets just yet.

I recently signed up for the monthly matchbox swap at Vintage Dragonfly. I have always wanted to alter little matchboxes and when I found JoAnne's challenge,
I couldn't resist.

I just missed the last swap. But since I already made the one for the next theme, Treasures of the Sea, I decided to play catch up and also made one for last month's theme, Things With Wings.

I used my favorite vintage fairy and gave her lots of winged friends.

There might be another wee fairy hiding in the butterfly garden....

Come out, come out....wherever you are!

And there she is!

I wasn't swapping so I did the vignette instead of filling it with goodies. I also wanted to add that this is just the standard 32 count matchbox. They make the larger ones called chef's matches, I think, but they were so much bigger. The regular size is small and cute.

I think these matchboxes are going to be my newest addiction. I will show you the other one once I find out who might partner is and after I get it out to her.

I'm on a roll trying to catch up on my challenges. I have my paper dress from last month ready to post too. So sorry I'm so late Angela. I couldn't take a picture tonight without a flash so I'll get that up tomorrow.

Be right back!
