Spring Sweeties - LOTVDT

Good Morning Everyone

I can't believe it's been another week since my last post. It's been half term here so I was really hoping to get a bit of blogging done - but it didn't happen! 

I did manage a little cas card with a very cute bunny from Lili of the Valley. This is just one of the stamps from the Spring Sweeties stamp set. All the stamps are now available from Lili of the Valley's website HERE.

I've coloured him with copics and promarkers, and added liquid pearls to the centre of the flowers. I've used a Spellbinders candlewick square die for the frame and a sentiment from Lili of the Valley.

Fluffy Kisses - Lili of the Valley DT

Hello Everyone, 
Life has got in the way of crafting...again. I do keep wondering if I should just give up for a while! Anyway I have a little card to share tonight using one of the brand new images from Lili of the Valley. This is available as a stamp set and in digital format. The stamp set is called 'Fluffy kisses'.

                            

I've coloured them with promarkers and copics and added liquid pearls to the bouquet of flowers. The background papers are from my box of scraps, but I think the pink stripy paper may be Craft Creations and the flowers from a Make and Create pad?! I've used a Creative Expressions scalloped circle die, and a Die namics Blue print 14 flower die. The sentiment tag stamp is from Lili of the Valley
