Such as when Jiminy summoned her, or Bae. When August was electrocuted, we saw that Blue appeared when she was called.

By the fairy code, if she is not summoned, she is bound to not interfere in the affairs of Mortals.

This could also explain Tinkerbell's excommunication. It wasn't necessarily that she helped Regina (because, let's face it, when she first stepped in, Regina was a dead girl without Tink's interference), but because she interfered into the affairs of mortals without being summoned. Makes sense... What about when puppet Pinocchio gained life? We have not seen how that happened, so I'm assuming Geppetto asked her to grant his wooden doll life? Well, we have not seen seen that part of story canonically (at least not yet, but with August coming back, you never know), but if you go back to the Disney version of the story of Pinocchio, Gepetto makes a wish on the Blue Star, which ends up summoning the Blue Fairy.

The Adventures of Pinocchio tell a totally different tale, and at least do not have the blue fairy granting life to the puppet. The original tale has Pinnochio carved from a piece of magic wood (that could talk), and young Pinocchio was nothing more than a mischief maker.
