hello......


 Hi there, I have been trying my hand lately at producing some quite Clean and Simple cards and so when my Neat and Tangled stamps arrived in the post today I just had to have a play with them. 
So I thought why not enter the Neat and Tangled Challenge , off I went and only after creating my card and added all 3 colours only to then see that it says use "2" of the colours, but oh well will enter it anyways,hope it will be allowed- note to self.... read challenge theme better, lol...
I used my 2 new stamps to make my card...On the Strip 2 and Party Dots Stamps plus the Free Digi Stamp.
I coloured the bird with Tombow Markers on an acrylic block spritzed with water.

I used 2 Memory Box Dies...Chloe Stems and Nesting Birds and some sequins for my bling -although they are a little hard to see on my card. 
I have recently seen this technique of stamping on both card and letters around blog land and had to give it ago.
The prize for May is a Trip-Boss  Embossing Folder- Ticket Stubs.

Inspirational Monday...



Hi fellow Crafters, It's time for another  "La-La Land Crafts"Inspirational Monday".
This week we are using BUTTONS and BOWS to inspire you.
Today's card focuses on the fabulous Dies from La-La Land Crafts.
 I used LOTUS DIE and the LARGE FLOURISH DIE.
The flowers, leaves and background paper were created with my rediscovered old Tombow and Stampin up markers that have long been sitting in a box at the back of the cupboard. 
My bow was also coloured with these markers.
Had such a fabulous time getting inky with these so you will be seeing more backgrounds using these pens, such a different result to Distress Inks.

Enjoy....


Hi there, I have recently found a new challenge called Runway Inspired Challenge- love how they decide on their challenges, and so finding some time on my hands with school holidays decided to create a card.
This is the picture- ( isn't this dress to die for!) that you base your card on. I  stamped my image up the side of my white card as in the pattern in her dress and  added different size black butterflies. The red butterfly is  because of the lipstick on the model. No colouring at all on this image and I couldn't possibly tell you how many goes I had to try to get this right, lol...

La-La Land Inspirational Monday- Distressing


Hi there everyone, It's "La-La Land Crafts"Inspirational Monday" and this week the theme to inspire you is
" DISTRESSED"
On my card I used  Sitting Luka  
There is something about Sitting Luka that has me reaching for him when ever I think of Boy cards, maybe its the cap as ever since he was a teenager (a while ago now)  its been my son Ryan's favourite attire.. 
I also used both parts of the fancy bracket die on my card by reversing it around when placing on my card.
