Fancy Shaped Fairy card !

Ooohhhhhhhh I borrowed my Aunts Grand Calibur to have a 'play' with and made this !!! Mmm ........ I struggled to take it back .......... hehe !!! Just joking my Autie is wonderful and I wouldnt do that to her. I used a Go Kreate die a XXL one and cut it so that part of the fold was within the cut to create a card.




The fairy stamp I used is from Lili of the Valley I coloured it using promarkers and glittered it up along with the flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts. The ticket stamped image I borrowed from my lovely Aunt too, I think its from Whimsey Stamps !!!! Oh yes I nearly forgot ........... the paper is from Nitwits !!!

At last I have a craft space semi organised now so I can make cards again !!!! Whooppeee !!!!!!
Still waiting for most of my things tho so I have limited resources ................. Mmm ! Ah well !!!

The same but different !!!

Well ............... I am getting ahead of myself and trying to get some birthday cards ready as I have a busy busy January ahead of me !!!! I made this card the same but look how different it looks by just changing the papers !!!!

I used the stamp from Lili of the Valley, coloured using promarkers. Olive green, Ivory, Sandstone, soft peach and a darker pink. Then glittered up the edges of her wings and skirt and of course the flowers in her hair with stickles !!!

Of course I had to use my faithful cricut machine to cut the scalloped circles; storybook cartridge !! An edge punch by Martha Stuart and papers by Nitwits and Jo-anns. The lighter papers are from Jo-anns.

I hope you like them as I hope the recipients will too !!!

Snow, snow, snow !!!

Ok ............. I am so desperatley wanting it to snow !!!! My relatives in the UK have loads of it and all we had was a few flakes this morning .............. SO !!! with snow on my mind this is what I designed today !!

The image is from Lili of the Valley as is the christmas stamp. I found the snowflakes in good old Walmart Xmas section !!! Might have to go buy some more of those !!! papers are from Pink Petticoat .............. just loving them !!!!

Ah well the sun is shining now so I guess no snow today :( maybe tomorrow !!!! hehe !!

Happy Crafting

Lili of the valley Glitter and Glitz Challenge

Here is a Christmas card I made with a Lili of the Valley Die cut Image for their Glitter and Glitz Challenge this week. Check it out on their blog here !!

The paper is from Pink Petticoat. I just love their papers ! I used a Lili of the Valley stamp for the Christmas greeting ............. I had to get all three of their sets they are scrummy !!!

I loved the idea Bev used with the snowflake so I went to Micheals and got some, they are lovely and glittery !!! While I was there I found the lovely glittery leaves. They were in the Holiday section for making flower arrangements !! I found some great stuff in that bit !!!

The Poinsettias are from Wild Orchid Crafts, I used stickles to glitter them up !! The heart pins are from Wild Orchids too. I thought this would go to my Grandma hence adding the hearts.

Hope you like it !!
