Carol Singing - Lili of the Valley DT

Good Morning Everyone, 
As Easter is nearly here, I thought I'd share a ......Christmas card!!
I've used a few of the stamps from a brilliant A5 rubber stamp set called Carol Singing from Lili of the Vallley for this card.

I've coloured them with promarkers. I've used a Dovecraft snowflake embossing folder for the background and a Marianne Designs die cut tree. I've also added a Memory Box star die.

Spring Bloom - Lili of the Valley DT

Good Morning Everyone, 
My crafty mojo has done a bunk! I seem to spend most of my day flitting from one job to another and not really settling on anything. My heart goes out to all those who can't be with poorly loved ones at such a difficult time. 
On a lighter note....don't get me started on butter, SR flour and eggs!! 
Anyway here is today's crafty offering... This is Spring Bloom.

I've coloured her with promarkers and the background papers are an old one from Lili of the Valley - Country Meadow. I've used a Creative Expression Complete Peony die and sentiment tags from Lili of the Valley.

I'd like to enter the following challenges:-
Simon Says Stamp - Happy Birthday
Cute Card Thursday - Anything Goes
Allsorts Challenge - Something old/ Something new ( I've opted for something new which is the image, only recently released from LOTV)

A little Book from Hunkydory

Hello Everyone, 
I hope you are all keeping safe and well. I needed a birthday card for my Brother from my Mum and Dad, and having used just about every male stamp I have for him over the years, I turned to a little Book of Hunkydory!

I added a bit of hessian and some green twine. The sentiment stamps are from Lili of the Valley. Very quick and easy - job done!!

Bunny with Egg Basket - Lili of the Valley DT

Good Morning Everyone, 
I hope you are all managing to stay safe. Considering I have now had a week off school, I'm still not getting much crafting done. Emma is struggling with the lack of cricket and trying to do her schoolwork online. Tom seems to be coping ok so far.
Anyway, as spring is nearly here and the clocks go forward tonight, I though I'd share an Easter card.
I've used one of the new images from Lili of the Valley. This is Bunny with Egg Basket.

I've coloured him with promarkers and the background papers are First Edition - Spring Drop. I've used my favourite Hunkydory Fabulous Flower die and a sentiment stamp from Lili of the Valley.
