Little Friends - Shelley

Morning everyone,

I have a birthday card to show today using one of the gorgeous Sylvia Zet Little Friends toppers called ‘Shelley’ which I‘ve teamed with the pretty vintage style Maja Design ‘Coffee in the Arbour’ papers.

 

I’ve used a range of dies on this card: the gorgeous Spellbinders ‘Fancy Lattice’ die to help create a background trellis; the Memory Box ‘Oceana Border’ die for the waves (currently available in our summer sale). The foliage was created using Spellbinders ‘Sprigs’ and Marianne Designs ‘Leaf Branch’ and the flowers have been made using the Memory Box ‘Hibiscus’ die to give a tropical feel!

 

The sentiment is from the Whimsy ‘Ticket Notes’ stamp set and has been die cut with the Whimsy ‘Ticket’ die - both are currently available in our summer sale! And finally, the happy birthday sentiment has been die cut using the Whimsy Circle Pennant die set also currently available in our summer sale!

Lemon Pepper

A Little Bit of Country

Hi all,
The sun is shining and the weekend is nearly here! I have a card to show you today using an image from Stampavie called 'A Little Bit of Country'...it's the sort of image that makes my heart sing!

For the sentiment, I've chosen one from the lovely Whimsy Ticket Note stamp set...such lovely words on this set and a great way to send a little message to a friend or relative! We have finally managed to get hold of the Whimsy Ticket dies to use with this stamp set...harder to source than Hen's teeth, believe me...and I'm very pleased to say, we now have a good supply in stock! 

My papers are from the lovely Prima Fairy Belle pad with co-ordinating Prima Essential Fairy Belle Petals and Fairy Belle wooden button (these are gorgeous..lots of different shapes: hearts, stars, circles, all in muted tones!). All other embellies are listed below.
