Pretty Pink Fae ..My Bestie UKDT card

This is one of the newer fairies from the Besties portfolio ,just fell in love with her as soon as I saw her.. I have coloured her using Coloured Pencils on Neenah card.. ..Firstly I printed off two pretty papers from Crafter's Companions Bramley Hedge cd  ..Poppies babies and the Secret Staircase .. I remembered this had some pretty papers on there that would work..so I chose the pink large dot and the ditsy daisies.. I then folded back the top of an 8x8 card and cut the ditsy paper to fit and mounted it onto Craft card using all purpose Collall glue, Then I cut and mounted the Pink and popped it onto the back of the card...Then I hand cut the image and mounted it on Centura Pearl with a hint of gold this gives a slight shimmer around the edge of the image,very pretty.I then Added 3D Collall gel glue to half of the topper and attatched as shown ..The pretty flowers are made from a Di-sire die Flowers for all occasions, my fav at the moment as it looks different each time you use them.. This time I cut them in Craft card and coloured them with  a Tim Holtz Pickled Raspberry  ink pad whilst still in the die..I then added these individually with the 3d gel glue and popped a gem in and then added a pretty pink bow to finish..Hope you like here and thanks for looking :)xx

ScrappersDelights Summer Loving

Well every one has gone mad the sun has arrived and it has been so very hot..I dont do heat so sadly too much for me but I have had fun doing this lovely image from Scrappers Delights for their FB Challenge ..It is coloured on Neenah with Polychromos Pencils..The actual image is only the young sweethearts on the bench ,the background is mine.. I have used some papers from Lidl's I got last Summer and these have come in handy for this card..I have cut into it ,and cut things out of it as it is a really beautiful paper which has encapsulated glitter on one side and plain on the other.,so it really did not need many embellishments ..It is all backed onto craft card as it goes so well with most colours and its recycled so its better too...I just added my own sentiment I created on one of my programs on my pc..The inside is the same paper but also has a verse too ..Thank you for looking :)xx

613 Avenue Create Challenge ..Time For Tea Digital Stamps

Hiya ,here is today's card for the challenge at 613 Avenue Create Challenge.. For this I have chosen this adorable Time for Tea Digital Stamp.. Well worth a visit to the Etsy store as there are all sorts of beautiful digi's to find there covering all sorts of occasions too.. I have coloured her in using Polychromos Pencils on Neenah Solat Crest Card.. I cut her out with a X-Cut Die and mounted her onto craft card.. Then using an 8x8 blank I used papers from my DCWV  Fresh Floral Stack,mounted them onto craft card and built the layers as you can see..I then added a white strip and popped faux stitching between some pretty red floral buttons and did a little bow half way between each of them.. I rarely put sentiments on as I do this when the cards are given away as I also usually add the name on there too ..Makes receiving a card much more special don't you think.. Thank you for popping by and looking and do click on the link on the right hand of my blog at the top and it will take you directly to 613 Avenue create Challenge where you will see the other DT's beautiful work too  :)xx

Morgan Fitszimons Hatchling Dragon ( Puff The Magic Dragon ) Card.

Dont be shocked ..This is the latest Crafters Companion Release Cd ..I have used one of the Hatchling Dragons and have coloured her in with Coloured Pencils and the background is done with Chalks on Neenah card..She is one of the many digi stamps on disc 2 and no doubt you will see more over the next few months as I so love her work..I have used the backgrounds from disc one and mounted them onto craft card,done the same with the insert too. then I used a Tonic wide oval die from the Verso range,cut out the Dragon and then mounted onto the craft card after I rough cut it around to give a small border..I then attached this to the card with 3D Collall Glue Gel.. The flowers are also from Crafter's Companion Flowers for all Occasions I believe and I cut these out of white card,and for softness I used a new product I am trying and that is Faber Castell Gell sticks ..You just rub a little on a couple of of petals then gently rub into the petals,they give a nice soft feel to the petals too and are almost instantly dry..I then shaped the petals and added to the card and then popped pink gems into the centers to finish..I always use Collall glues throughout my cards as I trust them and know even with posting and storage my cards last..Even the gems get glued on too so there is no chance of a card being spoilt by loosing its bling lol..Thanks for visiting :)xx

Todays Card is a cheerful Summery card to go with the lovely little Bestie..I have coloured her using Polychromos on Neenah card and Matted all the papers onto Craft card.The Papers are from The Floral Stack from Die Cuts With a View..I chose lilac as its so fresh and summery and added some pink into the image, and into the background with a beautiful piece of velvet shocking pink ribbon.The flowers are by Tattered Lace,their new Triples I think..These have a small embossing folder with them..These photos do not show how stunning these flowers look in real time, sadly.The background foliage is from Crafters Companionand Believe it to be called Foliage Trio ..This has all been kept white to keep the freshness to the card and I used a SN PenPP5 to dot the embossed dots in the centers and just to make the centers pop ...Thanks for visiting :)xx
