Blue & Pink Friendship

Hello Vicky here today with hopefully a bit of inspiration for you. This week I have made not 1 project but 2 different projects & not one coloured image in sight.........I know I think I'm sickening for something ;-)

Ok lets show you the 2 things I've made with the same Template........links to everything used will be at the bottom of the post.

I will show you the blue one first........ Using Craft & You Vintage Time papers.

I have made a Tag using the Dutch Doobadoo 'Shape Art A4 Tag XL'........there are so many different sizes to be made with this......its fab.

I've used Dutch Doobadoo paper Art for the 'Birdcage' & the 'Birds'. The birds sitting at the bottom I covered with shabby blue fran-tage.

I've also added Scrapiniec 'Best Wishes' chipboard & also covered that in blue fran-tage.

There is another Scrapiniec chipboard at the top.

I've added a small tag using a Joy Crafts die & stamped a sentiment on it with  Little Darlings 'Best Friends' stamp set. The flowers & glass berries are from Noor Design UK. I've also added in a bit of pearl string amongst the flowers. 

Ok now for the Pink Project ;-) again using the Tag Template....

This is a card I've made with the Tag Template. The papers I've used are sooooo gorgeous. I have mixed 2 different Craft and You papers, 1 from the My Wedding collection & the other from the Rose Garden collection........I think they have gone beautifully together.

I've used a Scrapiniec chipboard as the main focus with a sentiment from the Little Darlings Friendship stamp set.......I love this stamp set can you tell lol. I've also added a little bird on the corner..

The large pink flower I made using the Floral Flourishes die.

I also made a pocket inside & anothe Tag to go in that pocket. I added the gilded oval die for somewhere to write your message on.

I've kept the inside quite simple as the focus is on the front & I wanted to show the paper off more on the inside.

The sentiment is form the same stamp set. I've distressed all the papers, inked the edges with distress ink & added white Gesso here & there.

On the first tag you will see a scalloped border, this is actually a La La Land Crafts die, love thier dies, Tracy will soon be stocking these over at Noor Design UK.......so watch this space ;-)

Thats it from me, hope you have a fabulous day & why not do some shopping over at Noor Design the New Magnolia doo-Hickey set is due in the shop this week, so gets yours while there are still a few left.....these are excellent value for money & this one is all about Fairytales........

With Love On Your Wedding

Hi everyone Vicky here today with a Wedding Card in a shabby chic kinda style.........oooh I lurve shabby chic ;-)

So over the weekend I finally got chance to play with my DT Kit that Tracy sent us.......OMWord I am going to start with the papers I've used on this card. Now let me start by saying I truly adore Maja Design papers & nothing else compared........that was however until I got my hands on these gorgeous Craft & You papers. The quality is fantastic & they are excellent value for money. I loved them that much that instead of getting the latest Maja Design release I went over to Tracy's shop & ordered LOTS of paper.......I love paper but I'm fussy............these are beautiful papers at a fraction of the cost.....

Anyway I better show you my card lol.

All links are at the bottom of the post. Tracy is now stocking WOC flowers, she has a few on her website but there are more to come soon. The papers are Crafts & You 'My Wedding'........although these can be used for much more than weddings.

I've inked the edges with Pumice Stone distress ink & added gesso in places as well.

The honeycomb shaped chipboard is Scrapiniec & has been painted with white gesso. Tracy will have this in stock soon........ I love this honeycomb bit, it adds that extra bit of something.

In the top right corner I added a Scrapiniec Corner chipboard, I painted it with white gesso & added dots of pearl with a White Pearl Pen.

These chipboard shapes from Scrapiniec are awesome & want them all.........eventually lol.

This chipboard was in a set & you get 5 pieces of chipboard altogether including 2 frames.

So the lovely kissing couple I fussy cut out from the 'My Wedding' sheet 07, I added white gesso & some dots with the Pearl Pen for their eyes. I also fussy cut out that backing the sentiment is on then placed that onto the Oval die.

I also placed CheeseCloth underneath the oval die.

Again from sheet 07 I cut out one of the circles & turned it into a cabochon adding the cabochon cover which is from my stash. I added another Scrapiniec chipboard, the hearts on the arrow which Tracy will be adding to Noor Design Uk very soon.

As I've covered up the paper I thought I would show you just how pretty it is so I've took a photo of the inside before I add a place to write a message. Isn't it just so pretty, trust me the photo's dont do this paper justice.

At the side I fussy cut yet again from sheet 07 half a doily & placed it between the two layers of paper & added pearl dots. I also cut out the small butterfly from the sheet & there are still loads left to cut out.........its brilliant!!

The rolled roses I used the die shown below & sheet 03, I inked them & added a little bit of gesso. The leaves are also a new die from Crafts & You & cuts perfectly everytime.

Well thats it form me, why not pop on over to see what new items Tracy has added & also what is due in very soon ;-) Lots of yummy things including the new Whimsy stamps........I've ordered some of those, they are sooooo darn cute!!

Thanks for stopping by, take care.

Lotsa hugs Vicky xxx
