A new card

 

 

I have missed crafting more than I realised, so I'm making up for it with another card.

This time I have used a Lili of The Valley stamp, 'Emma swing'

I have had this stamp for awhile and decided to use it for their current Spring Theme Challenge.

Papers are Lost and Found's BLUSH. I liked this paper pad so much I bought 2,

( yes, definately indulgent) Charm, twine, material flowers are from The Ribbon Girl.

I used Spellbinders dies and coloured with copics

Shoes/hat band/dress R85, R83, R81

Flowers R83, R81, R00

Hat E31, E30 & colourless blender

Crafting again....

After what seemed like forever I am now very pleased to be able to craft again. Today I have my card for the Simply Magnolia Challenge, Hats off to You, Thankyou!

This challenge is sponsored by Scrapbooking Allsorts and Tilda's Town.

We are also having a DT Call so if your interested in joining us head on over to apply.

 

I have used Bright Tilda and a Whimsy Stamps sentiment stamp. Paper is from Magnolia and Papermania. I have coloured with my copics, (so glad I hadn't forgotten how) and used some walnut stain in various places. The shape of this card I cut on my ECraft and the dies are from Magnolia and Spellbinders.

STILL AROUND

Hi, sorry I haven't been around for quite sometime. I just haven't had anything to share as I have carpal tunnel in both my wrists. Today I do have something though. Many months ago I was asked to design a card for The Ribbon Girl, what an honour, and here it is!

 

 

I have used white crazy mesh, 22mm flat lace white scallop, 38mm blue silky crush ribbon,
dragonfly charm, rose and pearl organza, beaded clear crystal leaves,
and liquid pearls, all of these products are from The Ribbon Girl.
