Hello Everyone, 
There will be a new release from Lili of the Valley at  the end of October. It will include some new rubber stamps, paper pads and art sheets. I've used images from a gorgeous new art sheet called Enchanted Unicorns to make these three cards....

The art sheets are fantastic. They are a really good quality print on heavy card stock. I cut three of the images out and added a touch of glitter.  The backing papers are from a new set that is to be released called Watercolour Dots Cool Sunset. I've used a Creative Expressions flower die and sentiments from Lili of the Valley.
