Happy Valentine's Day :o)  Hope someone spoilt you today!

So, my first post today isn't a Valentine's one, but I'll be back later with Pav's card to show you... This one is my Sugar Nellie DT card using a gorgeous Leanne Ellis stamp again.




I seem to be using red cardstock as if it's a neutral at the moment... getting through loads of the stuff, but I do quite like it!

Items Used
Scalloped card blank - Joanna Sheen
Stamp - Sugar Nellie Moon Beams - Funky Kits
Sentiment stamp - Penny Black
Colouring - copics
Papers - Echo Park Dots & Stripes - Craft Mojo

**If you'd like some of these sweet little Annie stamps, they're available as part of a fab offer at the moment - 4 Annie stamps for just £9.99!  Set 1 is here and Moon Beams is in Set 2 here**

I'll be back later... Hope you all have a lovely day :o)

Dudley Balloon - Little Miss Muffet DT

Hello everyone :o)

I'm here with my DT card for Little Miss Muffet, using Dudley Balloon - one of the fab new releases... There are all sorts of special offers and other fabness (oh come on, surely that must be a real word...) to celebrate Little Miss Muffet's birthday - have a look at this post for all the info.




Dudley ended up a lot darker than I wanted him really - my YG copics are all running out, and the lightest one completely ran out just as I started colouring this in.  Yesterday 2 brown ones ran out... it's an expensive business, this colouring lark!

Items Used
Digi stamp - Dudley Balloon - Little Miss Muffet Stamps
Colouring - copics
Papers - Bazzill Basics Dino-mite - Craft Mojo
Sentiment stamp - Paper Smooches Sentiment Sampler - Craft Mojo
Navy string/ burlap - Craft Mojo

Hope you all have a lovely evening :o)

A shaped 21 card...

Hello everyone :o)

Ooh look... I managed to design a shaped card using the Cameo software!  I started with the scalloped number cut files and faffed around until I ended up with this... ooh I was really pleased with myself lol.


This is another card for my cousin - mum needed one to send, although she chose the Leanne Ellis card I made, so this is the one from us.  There are things I wish I'd done differently - not too keen on that shimmery green/ aqua cardstock now, wish I'd just cut it in white... but I'm still quite impressed that it actually worked!

Items Used
Shaped card - made using Scalloped Numbers (design ID #19277)
Papers - LOTV
Butterfly die - will add name later, not sure!
Sentiment - Paper Smooches Sentiment Sampler - Craft Mojo
Pearls from my stash

I'm entering my card for the following challenges
Papertake Weekly - anything goes + optional shaped card
Sweet Stampin' - sentiments only (does this count?)
Totally Gorjuss - sentiment as main focus (again, not sure if mine counts!)

Off for a commenting catch up... Hope you all have a lovely evening :o)

Hope you all have a lovely evening :o)
