New LOTV stamps - rugby girl

Hello lovely people,

I have an apology to make as I have been so busy over the last week that I haven't had time to catch up with all your blogs but I plan to pop round tonight.

Today is another busy day but a nice one as I shall be mostly crafting and catching up on my DT cards.

Speaking of which...it's new stamp release day at LOTV and there are all sorts of Little Folk and Little Critters for you to choose from.

Here's a little sample I made as part of the Design Collective with one of the new stamps;

I enjoyed making this card suitable for a girl but not too 'pretty girly' and of course the image is just so adorable!

Framed Tilda

Hello lovely people,

I am here with a non-DT card that I made for my great aunt-in-law who had a horrible incident where a dog attacked her dog and pushed her over so she broke her wrist :-(
It was also her birthday a few days later so I wanted to make something special to cheer her up and I went for an all out pretty feel!

Now, how often do you cut a fancy shape out of a piece of DP and don't even think about the waste piece?  Well I do it all the time, but not on this occasion!  I used the outside piece to create a frame for my image and I was planning to raise it up a little but decided it actually looked better flat.

This was my first ever Tilda so will always be one of my faves.  I have added some glamour dust to the ribbon and the little dots amongst the flowers and then just for good measure I popped some on the 3D roses as well!  I haven't done this before and think it looks really pretty :-)

Challenges I am playing along with;

1. As You Like It (fave papers - it has to be Maja especially this latest collection as the colours are just gorgeous and I like that the patterns are quite small)
2. Marvellous Magnolia (Tilda & any sentiment)
3.  Tilda's Town (celebrate summer)
4.  Bunny Zoe's (summer colours)
5.  Simon Says Stamp (make it sparkle)
