Little Things Mean A Lot

Hi everyone I have 2 projects to show you today, one with a stamped image & the other without.

The first one I will show you a card I made with the gorgeous Scrapiniec Chandelier.....I love these chipboard shapes & words.....perfect for anyone who does not like stamped images or perfect for quicker cards.

I sprayed the Chandelier with white spray paint, I love these because you can spray them, paint them, ink them or leave them as they come. I chose spray as it leaves a nice sheen to it when its dry.

For the edge I used a Crealies die. The paper is the gorgeous Maja Design Vintage Romance which Tracy has in her store, such a gorgeous pad.....as they always are ;-)

I have added lace along the top but I hid most of the front oops. However the inside is decorated the same so you can just see it at the top inside lol. The envelopes are from the Magnolia Doohickey Club Kit 9. Of course I've used beautiful flowers from Noor Design & have you seen the gorgeous butterfly.....love those!! I also added a bit more Scrapiniec at the top peeking out of the flowers, which was also sprayed white.

For my second card I used a Dutch Doobadoo Card Art A4 Swing Art template, with the beautiful Craft & You Rose Garden paper, all of which is machine stitched.

Behind the centre oval I added double layered lace

Love the folds on this & the best thing about these as they make a statement without having to put too much foofiness on ;-)

The star die-cut is from Doohickey club set 9 & the butterflies & the tag which the sentiment is on is from Club set 10..........I think Tracy still has 1 or 2 of these left.....

Added a fabulous bit of bling in the top corner, these are so so pretty!!

Also can you see the Scrapiniec leaf peeking out.

This is from the top so you can see the fold better.

How do you like this fabulous cute Whimsy stamp, I soooo love these elephants. I coloured this cutie in about 2 months ago.........shamefully its took til a week ago to put it on a card.

Thank you for stopping by, take care & enjoy your day.

Lotsa hugs Vicky xxx

Summer Joy

Hello everyone, hope you all had a wonderful weekend.

I'm actually typing this post on the friday before the weekend & while my card is reminding me of summer........well through the window is murky, misty & grey.

Thank goodness for Maja Design for bringing sunshine in when skies are grey ;-)

Now I made this card just before the red card last week......my Maja Design papers came & I couldnt decide which ones use first......so I used my DT ones first.....its easier to get over the loss then....mine I can stroke & stroke & stroke.........kinda like my own paper pet & she's called Maja ;-)

Seriously if you dont have these papers yet then rush to get them NOWWWWW....here's the link ;-)

I have made some little banners going out the side there from the strips along the bottom that are on the back of each 12x12 sheet.....love these!! I cut out one fo the little postage stamp doo dah's & give it a bit of distressiing. The die at the top is the fabulous Fence die, all links at the bottom of the post.

 I have used one of the images from the Summertime set & then sat Frenchy Tilda at the bottom.........she has been sat in my coloured up box of images now since I first got her when she was released........she was the first one I coloured.......guess she was waiting for the perfect paper ;-)

The Bicycle is her's lol.

Can you see the beautiful lace peeking out.....mmmm totally gorgeous!!

As you can see inside is decorated as always. All papers have been distressed a bit & inked with pumice stone & then machine stitched.

All flowers of course are form Noor Design UK, as are the pomegranate apples. I also put a string bow in amongst them............our Bev does inspire us all ;-)

Well that's it from me, hope you saw this months challenge, if not scroll down to the post before this one.......looking forward to seeing all those yummy creations.

Thanks for stopping by
