24th September, 2017 A Pretty Bithday Step Card.

Hi, good morning, in fact a very early good morning, as it is just gone 2 a.m. One of those night when for some silly reason you just cannot get off to sleep. I thought that I may as well do something useful with my time , so would like to show you a birthday card that I finished making yesterday.  It is using the stamp called Wonky Tonk Girls, which I have used a few times and really love it.

The daisies are made from mulberry paper that were spritzed very lightly with pink, screwed up just a little and a tiny rose popped in the middle. I stamped the image, coloured her using Copics, then re-stamped her body onto Maja Design card and layered  3D style. I put a few very tiny pink crystals on her hair.

      A closer peep at the daisies. The leaves are from Heartfelt Creations stamp and die set

Just a few more embellishments and a pretty butterfly to finish off.

Thank you for taking a peep, have a lovely day xx

15th September, 2017 LOTV Christmas

Hi, good morning. I have some pretty LOTV Christmas toppers to show you today using their very latest launch. They are so very cute, could not resist them !

                                The lovely die cut back ground is a Tonic studio set, lots and lots of
                                                          different way to lay the dies.

                         

I seem to be in love with reds at the moment, but very traditional. Again a lovely LOTV image, which I have had for a few years.

Thank you for taking a peep at my work, have a lovely day xx

6th September, 2017 And now for something different.

Hi everyone and welcome.  All our family and close friends birthdays seem to run from the end of August through to January. I am not allowed to buy a bought card for anyone, so a busy time for me at the moment as I have five family birthdays this month, and ooops  ! forgot one , so had to make a quick one, plus a niece that is not very well and in hospital.

I used a Heartfelt Creations Classic Rose stamp, coloured it with Copics and put onto a black background card stock  that I had embossed and gilded in golds.  I added a  pretty organza ribbon with a gem in the middle with a few white faux flat backed pearls...done !  quite pleased !

This one was using Spellbinders dies layered onto a white linen card. I made the pink Foamiran flowers plus a few bought  pink mulberry roses and a little touch of dried gypsophilia

    Hope you enjoy looking at my cards, thank you for taking a peep and have a lovely day.

31st August, 2017. Magnolia for a change.

Hello and good morning.  It seems such a long time since I coloured a cute Tilda image, and felt inspired after having a peep at all the lovely cards on Pinterest. I have a fair amount of Tilda stamps so decided to put at least one to use.

Isn't the scalloped garland banner pretty ?  Bought from Noor Design, a Little Darlings Die.

Lots of pretties used on this card topper.

I made the pretty blue cornflowers by using a Martha Stewart punch, quite impressed with how they turned out. I used mulberry paper, sprayed it a pale blue.

Hope you like my tilde topper, thank you for stopping to take a peep, have a lovely day. xx

18th August, 2017. One LOTV image, two different toppers.

Hi, good morning, today I would like to show you two different toppers that I have done ,using the same down loaded image.  I am quite liking these down load pre-coloured images, so very handy when you are wanting a pretty image, already coloured and you want it now !   not waiting for the post to arrive in a few days time, but now ! As all crafters know, once you get an idea in your head you need to get on with it...... so one down loaded pre-coloured image and this is what I have done.

It is from LOTV and called Hugs. I kept true to the colours and did the topper is pretty shades of browns and cream. The flower was one found in my stash, so tied in quite well with my colour scheme.

I really loved this image, but did not want to do browns again

so I got out my Copics and touched it up with pinks, makes it look totally different.

Thank s for taking a peep, hugs xx

9th August, 2017 , A Black and Grey Creation.

Hi, today I would like to show you a pretty black and grey topper that I was asked to do for a friend. I have used the Wonky Tonk girl, but coloured it in the chosen colours that was asked for. At first I was not too sure, but as it started to ' get together ' I could see how pretty it was going to turn out. Hope you like it.

  I coloured her using Copics . The flowers are from Heartfelt Creations Flowering Dogwood. I stamped with white onto black card, die cut and shaped.

Thank you for taking a peep, have a lovely day, xx

5th August, More LOTV From the Latest Christmas Stamp Launch.

Hi, Into August already, do not know where July went to. Been so busy lately helping out with cleaning out a shop ready for my daughter to take over with her new business venture.

Here are a couple of Christmas toppers that I have just done from the very latest LOTV stamp launch. Loving these latest ones, wish I could have afforded to have bought them all.

                               Used my usual Copics to colour with, always my favourite.

These little mice as so cute !!

Thank you for stopping by, have a lovely day, xxx
