LOTV Hello Cupcake Die Cut

Another of the Lili of the Valley die cuts from my winnings. Mix of Nestabilities & Nellie Snellen square dies for matting & layering.

Shaped card from a Create and Craft set. Doohickey Swirl, some organza ribbon & Stickles for a bit of sparkle to finish it off. 

Don't know if I'll ever use ALL the die cuts I received. Maybe I should use them for my Mother's Day charity cards next year, if I haven't used them by then!

Thanks for looking.

Exploding Box Card

Decided to make an exploding box card but didn't allow myself time to decorate outside as well as in. Duh! All 3 layers were similarly decorated with charms or embossing but only took pics of top layer.

Used Core'dinations card, Nellie Snellen Scalloped Square Die, Nestabilities Blossom, Cuttlebug Embossing Folders, Papermania Brads, Charms from internet but forgotten from where. Sorry. Magnolia Doohickey Swirl & Leaf dies, die cut LOTV from the Fairies sheet (another from my prize. Woohoo!) Some Stickles for a little bit of sparkle & job done. Sentiments were computer generated. No wonder there was no time left to decorate outside.

Thanks for looking.

LOTV Milly Just for You Mother's Day

Milly has been coloured with Promarkers (Quelle surprise!!) Flowers punched with Kuretake punch. Leaves from a Magnolia Doohickey die. Papers were a freebie from a magazine, I think. Sentiments were computer produced and cut with Nestabilities as were the layers.

The base card was cut with a Grand Nestability. Ribbon is net from local haberdashery. Pearl flower centres are from Meiflower & some stickles for a bit of sparkle.

Only made a few of these for the Charity Fund raising. Will be back later with a pic of the one I reproduced about 30 times!!

Thanks for looking.

LOTV Little Girls Swing Time

Lili of the Valley stamp coloured with Promarkers.  Both border die & swirl are Magnolia Doohickey. Off to the SECC Craft Show tomorrow. Won 2 tickets in a local newspaper. 3 of my friends are coming with me this time so should be a good girls day out!

Sentiment was a freebie from a magazine. Meiflower flat backed self adhesive pearls. Base card is cut with  Grand Nestabilities, layer from normal size nesties.

(This post was scheduled for Thursday night & Blogger decided not to post it! 2nd time this week this has happened) 

Thanks for looking.

Mother's Day Lili of The Valley

LOTV 'Milly Flower Power' coloured with Promarkers. Nesties used for matting & layering. Magnolia Doohickey die for leaves & Kuretake (I think?) punch for flowers.

Marianne Design Creatable Butterfly, Meiflower Pearls in flower centres & Flat back gems on butterfly & Stickles to add glitter! 

Oh and almost forgot... I won this stamp & more plus diecuts from LOTV in another competition in Cardmaking & Papercraft Magazine. Lucky to win once but twice, woo hoo! Only one of the stamps was a duplicate so will run a mini blog candy later to give it away.

Thanks for looking.

Mothers Day Cards for Charity

Happy Mother's Day to all the Mums out there. Hope you've enjoyed your day.

Once again this year have sold cards I made to my colleagues & will be sending the proceeds to 'Breast Cancer Care'. I just can't believe how generous people are! Have raised £93 to send which is more than last year & I thought that was good. Many thanks to all who donated.

All the cards have the same basic ingredients - Spellbinders Butterfly, Martha Stewart Edge Punch or Doo Hickey, Ribbon & Self adhesive gem stones, Cuttlebug Embossing folder. One or two had Metallic Rubons added on to embossing & some had Stickles added to the butterfly wings.

Thanks for looking.

Another Kenny K

I'm still trying to use all the Kenny K Digi images I got so you may see a theme developing here.

This one was also coloured with Promarkers. Papers are Dovecraft. Nestie Blossom for computer generated sentiment & Nestie Rectangles for main image. Kuretake (I think) for small flowers. Papermania gem brads. And just had to use my new Magnolia Doohickey Tilda Lace Border and Marianne Creatables Branch. Phew. That's the first time have taken note of evrything I used and probably the first time I got it right.

Now just need to get my photography sorted cos the colours are deeper in reality.

Thanks for looking.
