Foxy fairy

Please don't faint .... yes I am back again in the same day. I just had to show you one of my gorgeous new stamps that arrived this morning. From the first second I saw these beautiful stamps I fell in love with them and just had to order some for myself. This little beauty is called 'Love is Gone' and I doubt she will be alone for long - what a foxy fairy! The images are all so 'grown up' if you know what I mean and I think that my purse is going to be a whole lot lighter because I just need more of these fabulous Sweet Pea Stamps.

At last ... my sneak peek for LOTV!

Good afternoon and boy oh boy am I excited. I have been itching to show you my sneak peek of one of the brand new Lili of the Valley stamps which will be available to buy at the end of the month.


I think you have to agree that LOTV are just getting better and better and are always fabulous value for money. This little beauty is called Rosie Posy and I think she is going to be so popular. This is such a versatile image and could be used for almost any occassion - I am officially in love with her already!



She has been coloured with copics and the edges have been softened using some shimmer chalks - love this effect! I am also trying different colours of copics that I do not usually use and I am so pleased I did, how gorgeous is this colour combo!



Of course I have a few challenges too for my card ...

Just Magnolia - Monochromatic

Woohoo, it is Friday again and time to play along with us all at Just Magnolia . Thankyou for all taking part last week, I really enjoyed popping over to see lots of your lovely creations. This week we would like to see you make something that is ...

MONOCHROMATIC

Don't worry, you can use white in your creations like many of the DT have. Just pick your favourite colour and then use lots of shades of that colour to make your card. I have used lilacs .... I just adore purple so much, deffo my fave colour in crafting ... or is it, lol.



I had a slight emergency .... my E00 ran out whilst colouring little Tilda but some ink is on its way to me so she will have a little touch up when it arrives .... my first pen to run out ... scary! I have used some more of these pretty snowflakes that I found at the range, I really do like them.



A little look from a different angle to see the different layers. I followed the sketch over on Sketch and Stash ... my new stash this week are my snowflakes - expect to see more of these over the next few weeks! I have also decided to enter my card in this weeks Simon Says Stamp challenge which is 'All that Sparkles' and also Creative Card Crew which is snowflakes.
I hope you all get chance to play along. Don't forget to pop over to the challenge blog for details of this weeks sponsor and also to feast your eyes on the other DT's amazing creations
