LOTV Unicorns


Hi Lovelies...

For my cards today, I've used a set from LOTV called Unicorns and Dragons... of course, Unicorns are my among my favourite of all images, so I was very happy colouring and fussy cutting these little guys!


For my first, I added a die cut circle of stars - cut from glitter card - to my card base, then matted and layered with some lilac card to give a frame.  I adhered the Unicorn with foam pads.

For second card, I've done very similar, but added the word 'sparkle' - cut with a die from Hello Bluebird stamps.


Card Info:
Images - LOTV Unicorns and Dragons Clear Stamp Set
Dies - Lil' Inkers Stitched Square, Star Circle, Hello Bluebird Sparkle word die
Colouring - Copics

Pink and Main My Little Love Bug


Hey Peeps..

I've used the gorgeous Pink and Main My Little Love Bug set again for my card today, as I loved the set so much.

I coloured and fussy cut the images, then laid them to one side while I created a stencilled background using a cloud edge stencil onto a diecut square.  I stamped the sentiment using two of the stamps from the set.  

I added glitter to the bugs' wings and the centre of the  flowers to give some sparkle.... then adhered the images onto the clouds.

Cloud Edge Die - MFT

Colouring - Copics

Pink & Main My Little Love Bug


Hi Peeps...

I've been playing with a new stamp set I bought a couple of weeks back... in fact I was waiting (impatiently!) for it's release as I'd seen cards by the Design Team and knew I wanted to use it!

It's from Pink & Main and is called My Little Love Bug - and it's totally adorable!  I've made a couple of cards, but am only sharing the first one today.

I coloured and fussy cut the images, then used an aperture die to create a shaker card with lots of sequins and glitter.. adhering the images into place over the aperture.  I'd smooshed the back panel with pink Distress Oxides to give texture. There wasn't room for a sentiment so I decided not to try to squeeze one in.. but to leave it blank.



Card Info:
Images - Pink & Main My Little Love Bug
Dies - Catherine Pooler Ruffles for Rectangles, MFT Stitched Rectangles
Distress Oxides - Spun Sugar and Kitsch Flamingo
Colouring - Copics
Pinks - R81/83 Greens - G21/24
Wings - BV31/B000
Bug - E01/00/11/04 T0/1 BV17

I really enjoyed the making of this card - you know that feeling when something you've designed turns out just how you wanted it?? THAT feeling!

Gummiapan Flower Bed



Hi Lovelies...

I've used a tiny little flower die from Gummiapan for my card today - creating a little Spring scene.  

I used Distress Oxides for the diecut square background which I splattered with water,. Then  I coloured the diecut flowers and adhered them with a tiny diecut sun and a cloud.

I created the card base with an embossed panel to give texture, matted onto pink card.  A tiny little sentiment finished the card.


Card Info:
Dies - Gummiapan Flower Bed, Lil' Inkers Sun, Memory Box Cloud, 
Lil' Inkers Stitched Square, Honey Bee Sentiment Strips
Distress Oxides
Sentiment - The Stamp Market Tons of Type
Altenew Linked Ovals Embossing Folder
Copics

I'm sorry that the photos aren't good of this card, it was a grey day so the light was really poor for the photography - so the whites look a little grey!

Happy Crafting!

Waffle Flower Mod Blossom


Hi Peeps...

Today, I'm sharing a couple of cards I made with a new Waffle Flower Die and Stencil set - it's called Mod Blossom, and is so easy to use!  I diecut the flower panel first of all, then popped it onto my grip mat, with the stencil over top.  No stamp was needed as I just used small brushes on my ink pads to blend colour onto the flowers and leaves.


You can see from this panel that the sentiment is diecut from silver cardstock, with a shadow of white to help it stand out.  I added gems to the centre of the flowers that surrounded the sentiment, so there's lots of sparkle.  

Then I did some subtle smooshing onto a panel of Bristol Smooth the size of my card.  I adhered the diecut panel onto this using double sided foam tape under the flowers and around the edge.. Lastly, I diecut a rectangle frame to finish the card.


I did pretty much the same for my pink card, the only difference is that the sentiment is cut from gold mirri instead of the silver.

Card Info:
Dies and Stencils - Waffle Flower Mod Blossom, MFT Rectangle Frame
Inkpads - Simon Says Stamp Blues, Catherine Pooler Pinks, .
Distress Oxide Greens
Gems and Mirri Card



I was really happy with how both of these cards turned out...  hope you like them too!  Which is  your favourite... blue or pink??

Big hugs
