Gnome with Sled

Hi all,

Today I am sharing a cute card featuring these super cute new gnomes that have just been released at Lili Of The Valley...

 For this card I used one of the new Lili Of The Valley Simply Prints called Gnome with Sled. I used some papers from The Works all mounted onto light kraft card. I added some trees using an old Magnolia Die that I made with Glitter & Kraft Card. I also added ribbon, lace, wooden snowflakes and words.

I will be back soon :)

Painting Gnome

Hi all,

I'm so sorry I forgot to post this yesterday but here it is, better late than never! So by now you will know the fabulous new releases at Lili Of The Valley are now available. It was only released yesterday but has already been one of their most popular releases. Here is another sample from me using the new gnomes...

I decided to go with a shabby chic rustic theme for this one. This card features the Christmas Gnomes 2 Digi Stamp. I had great fun colouring it with my Copics. I used some old Christmas Papers from my stash ( I think they were Dovecraft) and got to work with my edge distresser tool to scuff up all the edges. I mounted them onto kraft card. I added some pearls, twine, burlap and a wooden corner.

You can find all the new releases and all Lili of The Valley products in their Etsy Store.

I will be back soon :)

Gnome Greetings

Hi all,

It's a wet weather day here today, so perfect weather for crafting! I have so much on my to do list so hopefully I will get some time to play with my bits and pieces. So today I am sharing a card that was made for Lili Of The Valley. They have an amazing Christmas release coming up so here is a sneak peek...

 This card is actually a lot brighter in real life but due to the dark weather conditions it was difficult to capture this when editing. This card uses one of the new Gnome Designs from Lili Of The Valley. They will be available as Digi Stamps in the LOTV Etsy Store. I coloured my santa style gnome with Copic Pens. I used some papers from my stash which were by Lawn Fawn. I mounted everything onto pale kraft card. I added a die cut tree, buttons, ribbon and sequins. The sentiment is also from the new digi release and will be available with all the other designs on 18th August. Not long to wait!

I will be back soon,

How cute is this little mouse! This one is from the Little Friends Collection which will be available as digi stamps and also rubber stamps. I coloured him with my Copic Pens and the sentiments are also from the new release. The papers I used for this card are from Nitwits and I mounted everything onto kraft card. The lace border is a Tim Holtz Sizzix Die - it is so stunning! I added lots of embellishments on this card.

Mother's Day Birdies

 Hi all,

I hope you all had a lovely weekend. We went to London for the weekend so I am just catching up with everything now.  Today I have two cards to share that I made for Mother's Day using some fabulous images from Lili Of The Valley...

For these cards I used some old Simply Print Sheets by Lili Of The Valley. This one is called but unfortunately it isn't available anymore. Lili Of The Valley now have a digi shop and they are adding lots of the older designs so do keep an eye out for this one, hopefully it will be back. The papers I used are by Nitwits. I mounted everything onto kraft card and stamped an old sentiment by Trimcraft. I added some ribbon and a pearl heart finish.

Special Friend

Hi all,

Today I am sharing a card I made as part of my DT duties at Lili Of The Valley.  Have you seen you can now get the Simply Print Images on their Etsy shop? There are loads more being added to. I went for a Spring/Easter theme...

For this card I used the Simply Print Spring Bunny Chicks. I printed it out twice so I could add a decoupage layer - I do like a bit of dimension! The sentiment is also from Lili Of The Valley called Everyday Greetings. I used a Marianne Design Chicken Wire Die and a M&C (The Works!) Dotted Border Die. The Papers are Nitwits which coordinate perfectly. I added some ribbons, button, flowers and pearls to finish.

I will be back soon.

Birthday Fairy

Hi all,

Today I am sharing a card made using the new Fairy Art Sheets from Lili Of The Valley. You may remember I made a couple of cards a couple of weeks ago using the stamp version of these, but these are the pre printed Art Sheets...

I do love using the art sheets. If you aren't in the mood for colouring or haven't got much time they really are the best for that! I teamed up my fairy with some funky background papers. I added lots of details. A die cut butterfly (think the die is from The Works), a banner, flowers and pearls. The sentiments are also from Lili of The Valley called Teenage Girl Sentiments.

I will be back soon with more creations :)
