Little Mouse Champagne - Lili of the Valley DT

Hello everyone, 

I hope you are having a lovely weekend. I really thought I was going to do lots of crafting over the half term holiday...but it wasn't to be! Cricket training, visiting friends and family all got in the way. I have got 4 Christmas fairs booked in so I really need to get a wriggle on and make some Christmas cards!

I've used a very cute stamp for this card. This is 'Little Mouse Champagne' from Lili of the Valley.

I've coloured him with promarkers and copics. The background papers are from Crafts and You Designs - My wedding. I've used a flower from the die namics Blueprint 14 die set and a sentiment stamp from Lili of the Valley.

Allsorts are celebrating their 700th challenge, and I wanted to say congratulations to them - what an achievement. A brilliant challenge to be able to enter, run by a fabulous design team. I hope you run for another 700 (and more!) challenges.

Snowglobes - Lili of the Valley DT

Hello everyone, 
Life is getting in the way of crafting ...again...there always seems to be something to stop me getting in my craft room. 

I made a little set of cards using some Christmas stamps from Lili of the Valley, these have taken over a week to make...couple of minutes here....a couple of minutes there....etc....

These stamps are from Lili of the Valley - A5 polymer stamp Snowglobes set.

I thought I would try something different so stamped them onto kraft card and coloured them with prisma pencils, and a touch of promarkers. The frame die is from Creative Expressions - Festive Collection Wreath Frame, which I added lots of glitter to and managed to get it everywhere else too!

 

I'd like to enter the following challenges:-

Little Ghosts - Lili of the Valley DT

Hello Everyone, 
Have you seen all the cute little ghosts that have been released by Lili of the Valley? Adorable doesn't cover it!
These are from an A5 polymer stamp set called 'Little Ghosts'.

I've coloured them with promarkers and copics. I made 2 gift bags, perfect for a few Halloween chocolates! The background paper on these is from Hunkydory. I used elements from the Creative Expressions Festive Collection - Christmas Village die set. 

Then, I made some chocolate buns, which Emma decorated (she's much better at piping the icing than I am!). I fussy cut a few more of the little ghosts and stuck them to cocktail sticks, and then into the top of the buns.
