Hi
 
Late post from me after a few days off and come with a set I've had for a long time but hardly used so had a play today.
 
 
A lovely cheery card for a bit of a dull wet day here :0) using the flower patch set and matching dies...had fun with these too so watch this space for more projects.
 
Lots of yummy colours used on base card of basic grey and whisper white and lovely simple greeting too.

Good afternoon
 
What a lovely day here lots of sunshine and am slowly getting some bits done out in the garden :0)
 
Today I want to show you the lovely little Easter gift I made for my neighbours daughter which includes a gorgeous yummy Lindt chocolate bunny!!
 
 
I adapted an SU box so has no lid and used pistachio pudding for the grass along with soft sky, pink pirouette and so saffron for the lovely little spring flowers. The sentiment is non SU but had printer problems hence the no actual 'Easter; greeting but the thought is definitely there!!

Little pearls to the centres of the flowers and all wrapped up with a gusseted bag and secured using curling ribbon.
 
very cute even if say so myself
 
Happy crafting

Hi
 
Oh my is it Wednesday already - where has the week gone to!!
 
Time flies when you are having fun :0)
 
Well I started with colouring in my stamp and stamping around the edges here then added the water to create a beautiful effect as my background.
 
I think the colour makes this even more stunning!
 
 
Plus stamping in black highlights the lovely vibrant marbling effect fantastically!!
 

 
Simple sentiment still in black and a couple of gems added to the butterflies.

 
Happy crafting

Well today is another of my watercolour wash backgrounds but more long the neutral line this time and I love the way it has turned out.
 
Used the butterfly basics small butterfly and sentiment embossed in gold to add the detail.
 
 
Base card is crumb cake a must have staple for me I think.
 



Added coloured gems and SU sequins too.
 



Better view of the embossing there - gorgeous.

Hope you all had a lovely weekend...and a lovely mothers day!!
 
I had a very nice family day and even got chance to play with my new watercolour markers -love love love them as you will see over the next few days I am learning to get different effects with them.
 
Anyway today has been a little chilly here so decided to make this lovely little wintery card to show you...
 
 
Base card of island indigo topped with my own watercolour background and stamped using a Christmas PL set...sorry!! I love this little snowflake though.

 
Sentiment stamped in basic black and added a black and white photo of my little boy all wrapped up 
the snowflakes are stamped in midnight muse and embossed with a little sparkle and gems.



Hopefully the weather will improve this week as has been very chilly here.

Happy Thursday to you hope you are having a good week so far...almost the weekend!!
 
Tdays offering is using one of my fave colours of coastal cabana and the gorgeous new designers papers with the design already on them for you to add colour to.
 
 
I coloured this with coastal cabana, Bermuda bay and a hint of midnight muse at the very edges. What a fabulous effect it gives!!
