Pink Petticoat Birthday

This little image I just adore! I love Pink Petticoat's Lola Rose prints. This one I coloured using Faber Castell watercolour pencils which I received from my husband as part of my birthday present. I mounted it up on some light green patterned paper, I'm not sure what the brand is, it is part of a mixed pack which I picked up in my local craft supply shop. I used a scrap of pink card and run this through the Cuttlebug using the "swiss dots" embossing folder. The bubble flower stickers came free with my regular papercraft mag "Papercraft Inspirations". I really love the colours in this card it reminds me of early summer, a time of the year that I am longing for at the moment!

lilybean'spaperie challenge

This is my entry in Melissa's challenge, at lilybean's paperie my first ever entry to any challenge, so here goes!! Didn't want to go for the overwhelming effect of polka dots so i thought I would be a bit more subtle and adding them as an accent instead, I like its simplicity and it was all made from leftovers, backing paper came free with a magazine as did the dots, scrap of grey card for the flower, run through the cuttlebug a little fabric flower and a contrasting brad, a little silver handmade with love heart, as I do like to craft with love!!! Finished off with a stamp. Nice.

Distressed!

Just a wee tag, first attempt at distressing, I see this technique on so many blogs, I need lots of practice I think, I would love to create some of the beautiful pieces I've seen lately, just keep trying eh? :)

Maggie with Flowers.

This paper has been in my stash for ages, I love the colours but was`nt sure what to do with it. I have been lacking inspiration a little of late, so I was determind that I would create at least one card today! The paper is by "Crate Paper", not sure of the pattern, sorry! It was the same sheet, with plain and pattern on the opposite sides. I then mounted a Maggie stamp onto white card and then again onto the same pink. Had the pink ribbon in my stash, it was a bargain picked up on the net quite a while ago, by Basic grey. Die cut a few flowers using my cuttlebug and added some clear gems for a little sparkle. Quite nice I think, would you be happy if you received it?!!! :)

Thank you!

I am quite please with how this turned out. I purchased these plain papers and swirl designs from Pink Petticoat. I like the colours here, the papers are "duck egg blue", and the brown ribbon I believe, came from a box of chocolates! How`s that for recycling! The little blue butterfly is from a magazine freebie. Finished off with a little "thank you" stamp. Lovely!!

Pink Petticoat Image

I just love how this card has turned out. I recently purchased these images from Pink Petticoat and could`nt wait to get using them! This lady I just love, the sentiment says "too much of a good thing can be wonderful". Love it! Used some scraps I had lying about, thought the blue and the lime green complimented the pink and brown in the pic well, used a little green ribbon to embellish along with a little flower just to add that girlie touch attched with a plain lime green brad. One of many I fear, I just love these pics so you will be seeing them again in the not too distant future!
