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 Die Cut 'Feather Boa'

When I won my LOTV prize it included some die cut pages as well as stamps so just had to make use of them.  This one is 'Feather Boa' from the Party Time page. 

Added some glitter, ribbon, pearls and punched flowers, computer generated sentiment, cut with nestabilities and job done. Easy peasy.

Thanks for looking.

LOTV Emma Shoes

Was sorting through some card photos and realised there were some I quite liked & hadn't posted. Now I just have to try & remember how I did them & which embellishmens I used. No challenge there then!!

Lili of The Valley Emma Shoes stamp coloured with Promarkers. Sentiment was computer generated. Flourish is a die from Cheery Lynn. Flowers from stash, coloured with Promarkers. Nestabilities Labels 1 for matting & layering & Stickles for a bit of sparkle.

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.

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.

Lili of the Valley Prize

Woohoo!! How lucky was I then???  I won a Lili of the Valley prize from the 'Cardmaking & Papercraft' Magazine. As well as 10 sheets of toppers like this one I won 10 of their beautiful stamps & 1 set of their circular sentiments!

I just added a computer generated 'magic wand' image & sentiment to this one with some pink mirri matting, some ribbon & then some Stickles. Melissa will love it. Still can't believe I won!

Don't forget you can win one of their new release for November stamps too.... see my post

LOTV It's My Party

Can't you just imagine the conversation that's gone before on this one!

Another of my LOTV purchases from the SECC coloured with Promarkers.

Martha Stewart edge punch, Nestabilities Labels, Die-Namics Scallop Border on the edge of the backing paper which is a digi image I've had so long I can't remember where from. Flowers from Docrafts I think. And the die behind the sentiment Nestie is Nellie Snellen. Added some stickles to her tiara & the flowers but not visible in the photo.

Thanks for looking.

LOTV Coffee Break

 
Don't you just love this pair looking as if they're having a good old gossip over coffee!

Both images are coloured with Promarkers. Some SECC bling from Meiflowers.

Stickles glitter and Martha Stewart edge punches as well as Nestabilities for the matt on the main image. I like the image so much you may be seeing it again soon. 

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.

Kenny K Twisted Easel ... again

A bit more in this one than I normally do but quite pleased with how it turned out. Difficult to take a pic of a twisted easel though.

Kenny K image coloured with Promarkers. Papers are Docrafts Victoria & Albert. Flowers are Prima & punched. Nestabilities Circles & Scalloped Circles for layers. Swirl Flourish is a punch. Bling was one of my MANY purchases from Meiflowers at the SECC.

Think overdid the bling and the Stickles! lol
