CUTIE LOTV MOTHERS DAY

Hello peeps.

Today I have a Lilly of the Valley stamp that I just love. This is an old one that they have rereleased due to popularity that I had to get.

I have coloured with distress inks on Derwent watercolour paper. and used a pretty Joy Crafts die for the frame. The gorgeous papers are a new pad called " Magnolia Lane " from ultimate crafts.

Lots of joy crafts butterflies and some yummy flowers to finish it

off.

Colours used were,  Picked Raspberry for the pink and evergreen bough for the greens.

RIBBONS AND BOWS

Well Gid'day everyone.

I can't believe I haven't posted a card on my blog since October last year. It has been an awful time trying to motivate myself to get back into my card making again. I have had a long break, but hopefully I can produce some lovely cards for you all to see again.

I have been trying to catch up with all the new digi stamps that have come out lately, and have chosen this "Jeremiah Ketner " stamp to start with. She is called " ribbons and bows " and you can find her HERE  at the etsy shop.

I have used distress inks done on Derwent watercolour paper.

Papers I used are from Wild Rose Studio called " antique library "

Frame is a new Marianne set no LR0376 I have distressed it with ink before I took it from the frame.

Lots of gorgeous flowers from wild orchid crafts.

Colours I have used for her were,

Vintage photo for skin, antique lines and walnut for hair, and spun sugar, victorian velvet for the bows.

I hope you have enjoyed your visit here and look forward to seeing you all again soon.

Please feel free to leave me some comments, I love to know someone has been here.

Till next time Big Hugz xxxx

OUT OF THE COMFORT ZONE !!

Hello Blog peeps ....

 

I have called this post " out of the comfort zone" because that is what this card is for me.

 

 

I have done something completely different from my usual type of card.

 

This is a new Saturated Canary digi image.

 

 

 

I have distressed all the edges and inked them up with Vintage Photo distress ink.

 

The papers I have used are from Michelle R designs digital papers.

 

Called Shabby Purple Charms.

 

 I have used some frontage around the image.

I dyed the lace with some walnut crystals to grubby it up.

 

I knew all those old flowers I have been hanging onto would come in handy one day. It doesn't pay to throw anything out, you never know when you may need it.

The butterflies are a Noor Design border and the birdcage is a Dixie die.

 

Sentiment from Whimsy ticket stamps and die.

 

 

I enjoyed making this card and think I might do another tomorrow. !

 

I wonder what you all think of it ????

 

Thanks for the visit . Till next time xx
