Ladybird Fly Home!

June 9th 2015

 

Entering this little cutie ladybird ATC into the One Sweet Challenge - Sweet Pea Stamps - Die Cuts/Punches Challenge for June. I just love this Ladybird image by Sandra Caldwell (one of my favourite Sweet Pea Artists!) You can find all the great Sweet Pea Digis and Rubber Stamps at their Store.

I cut the Ladybird on my Silhouette with one of the files from the Silhouette Store - just gorgeous and perfect for my themed ATC!

Vintage Tags & "Nudes"!!!!

June 8th 2015

Okay my reputation gone again - LOL yet again I am working with the tasteful vintage pin up gals available "here" at the SLS Lines Store!

You may not know but as well as digi stamps there are also some fabulous patterned papers, clip art and collage images available from SLS Lines! I've made a couple of journal pages and used several of the "Vintage Floral Tags". The vintage nudes were just a perfect match for the look of the pages so how could I resist colouring some up yet again?????

Lots of uses for these tags on the first picture of my post I used the tag as the whole page background and on the one above I used 2 tags as features on the page. They would also make great tag backgrounds and even mini book pages! Lots of fun to create with!

Petticoat Ephemera.....

June 7th 2015

Sharing my creations for Tsunami Rose today - made a few "gift" items all using Silhouette files and Tsunami Rose Petticoat Ephemera Printable Journal Kit - absolutely jam packed with so many papers and ephemera to use! I haven't even touched the surface making these little gift boxes - just as well I am making another creation this month!!

 

Above is one gift box - this design is one of my favourites - love cutting it and adding the patterned papers and ribbon, The round label at the front and the "made of love" tag are from the kit too!

 

I just love this wine bottle collar - a great way to gift a bottle of wine just to "jazz" it up a bit!! I love the pink & black together - always a great colour combo!

2 little gift boxes above with 2 different patterned papers. The great thing with digital printables is that you can resize to suit what you are creating!

Can't wait to create with this set again - I love the colours of the set and the beautiful rose patterns. Make sure to check out all the other items in store - Daisy is having a great "Summer" sale for the whole summer duration so stock up while you can get a bargain!!!!

Kookaburra says "G'day".......

June 6th 2015

The current challenge at the Cardz 4 Guyz Blog is "Birds" so I really wanted to use this special Kookaburra image again for a real Aussie creation!!!!! Jessica from JessicaLynnOriginal drew this especially for me some time ago - you may have seen it here on my blog before but a great excuse today to print it off and turn it into an outback card with some great papers from an Aussie Etsy Store "Sassaby"!

ICAD 2015 Warm Up Card....

June 5th 2015

 

I'm playing along at ICAD 2015 this year - this card is based on the Warm Up #10 Prompt - to "doodle" your name. Big thing for me - I hate my handwriting but nothing ventured nothing gained and I actually don't mind it! I used Copic markers on my index card. Will share some more soon - it's lots of fun!
