Embellies: Pearls, hand-made flowers and Card Candys

Good Evening,

Yea... i've manged to make a card. I've followed the fabulous sketch over at Papertake Weekly, i really loved working with it so thanks girls xx

The gorgeous new stamp is one Nikki sent me in my DT pack from Bunny-Zoes Crafts. Her name's Reeta, and is from The Greeting Farm range of stamps, i just think she's adorable! The papers were also in my DT pack and are from DCWV- Citrus Stack.

I really enjoyed making the flowers:

I just cut various sized circles, inked them, and attched together, i think they look really nice, and save a lot of money from my usual fabric ones!

Anyway, sorry for the short post, i need an early night lol!

Tilda again!

Materials:
Paper and Card- Citrus Stack, from DCWV
Image- Magnolia, coloured with promarkers and sakura's
Embellies: Prima flowers, punched daisys, perfect pearls, and woodware brads

Morning,
Hope you're all well. I thought I'd share with you another Magnolia card i made for the challenge over at Friday Sketchers, i was awkward and rotated the sketch 90 degrees anticlockwise! Thanks girls, i really loved working with it.
I just had to use my Citrus Papers from DCWV again... they're addictive!
For this card, i coloured the background fence, and then Tilda. I embossed her so she curled, and then popped her on top with silicone glue. I think this gives a really nice affect
I'm also going to enter this into the Stamp Something challenges which is winged things, my paper has little bee's on and Tilda has got one in her hand. :O)

A Close-Up:

I might do a tutorial on this if io find the time!

Just Magnolia

Happy Friday! :O)
Hope your all enjoying the evening. Well, i've managed to make a card for this weeks Just Magnolia Challenges which is a fab sketch by the uber talented Tab.
( see above)
I wanted to go really bright with this card and i knew that my new Citrus Pack from DCWV would be perfect. Nikki, is currently selling them in her shop, Bunny-Zoes Crafts, they have a fab range of gorgeous designer Paper to chose from including the delish new BG Pads. So why don't you pop over there and have a browse!


They are really glittery- not that you can tell from my rubbish picture lol. I've never used glittery paper before, and i think it looks really pretty!

Materials:
Paper and Cardstock- DCWV: Citrus Stack, avaliable from here.

Image: Magnolia, new Summer Collection.

Embellies: White Raffia Lace, perfect pearls, and white peel-offs.

For this card, i cut out the image of Tilda leaning, embossed the back so i would curl, and popped it on top of the strawberrys with silocone glue. I coloured the images with Promarkers and sakuras. I made the flowers myself, from punched cardstock and white peeloffs. :O)

The Inside:

I also decorated the inside for a change, with another Tilda, some more paper and a few gems.
Thanks for looking,

Pink and Girly

Materials:
Paper and Cardstock: Dovecraft and PM

Image: The Greeting Farm coloured with whispers, promarkers, and sakuras

Embellishments: Prima and Petaloo flowers, the spacers and raffia lace available from here.

Hi Everyone,

Hope your are all O.K.

Wow what a fantastic day, the sports were fantastic, and i've still got 6 more days to go! I still managed to make a card though, and i thoroughly enjoyed it. I picked out lots of girly colours of embellishments! :O)

I've used some gorgeous White Raffia Lace, and beautiful Silver Spacers from Bunny Zoes Crafts. I used a mixture of flowers, as i thought the dark pink petaloos matched the paper exactly, but i also wanted a lighter shade.

I am entering my card into this weeks: Papertake Weekly Challenge which is a colour combo.

I have chosen, pink, lilac, and white.

A Close-Up of the embellishments:

I also recived this fabulous award from Avril and Cheryl aswell.

Thank you so much girls, i really appreciate you thinking of me! xx

Thanks for dropping by, please leave a comment if you have time, i LOVE reading them! :O)

sMiLe... :O)

Good Evening,
I broke up from school today, i was really looking foward to the Summer Holidays, but i've been crying all afternoon. I'll really miss my Primary School... and today made me think of the 8 years i'd spent there...

Materials:
Paper- K+Co
Image- C.C Designs... i have to get this stamp, i love it lol! x Coloured with whispers and sakuras
Embellishments- Perfect Pearls, Prima flowers, and woodware brads.
Tools: MSBP

Anyway.... { lol } onto the card! I'm entering it into this weeks Roses On Paper Challenge, which is summer! I think my card is fairly summery, i tried to keep to a light colour combo! :O)
Can you tell?.... i've edited the photo in a Lexmark Programe. The image is sharper and i blured the background... the original lighting was terrible, so i played around with that too.

My GDT package came from Nikki today, so i'll get some cards done for you to see soon. I'm on a sports course all this week though... so fingers crossed i'll have some spare time! xx
