April 2018 So in Love with Lavinia Stamps.

Hi !  Well April is almost over. We had, just for a few days some beautiful weather. I planned on taking a break just for three days, then the rain came......stayed at home and did some craft work instead.  I recently discovered a company called Lavinia Stamps. they have some beautiful stamps and could not resist buying a few. Here is some of my work...' Less is More ' style.

                This stamp is from their Mystical Houses range. I used Copics to colour.      
 

 

 Another mystical house, but a larger stamp. I added a few Stickles  in pearl colours to add that little bit of a highlight.

                                                         

                                      Thanks for taking a peep, have a lovely weekend xx

12th April, 2018 A Pretty Easel Card.

Hello, more rain....we were supposed to be going away for a few days but have had to cancel due to the bad weather. Most of the flood locks are closed on the canal navigation so we would have got about 5 miles and had to return home, not much fun in that....so did lots of lovely crafting instead !

I would like to show you a pretty easel card that I have recently completed for a friend, so enjoyed making it.

   I added a pretty matching gift tag that slides between the easel.  All the roses were hand made using a Tim Holtz die. the card stock I used was from Lemon Craft. Love their card, trouble is I never seem to want to cut into it.  Now another photo of the easel card.

     

I wish I was clever enough to be able to do bigger photo's for you, hope you can still see it and enjoy taking a peep at my work. Thank you and take care, hugs xxx
                  

1st April, 2018 A Pearl Wedding Card.

Hello , I hope that you are all having a wonderful Easter Day. I would like to show you a pretty commission card that I did for a lovely lady that lives in Wales, it was for a Pearl  Wedding anniversary. I really enjoyed making it.

I had some very pretty white pearl embossed paper in my stash, knew it would come in handy at some point. I tore the edges and added white lace to give the romantic shabby chic look

I used an organza flower , little white roses and some spotty organza ribbon and of course lots of other bits and bobs to finish off the card. I decorated the inside of the card to match the front.

                      Hope you like it, have a wonderful day, thank you for taking a peep xx
