Here comes the bride

I'm sharing with you today my Bellarific Babe wedding card that I made for my mum to give to my cousin who is getting married next month.  She really liked a card I made with another image so I'm afraid I cheated and just copied that one!  Anyway, here it is...



Another Uptown Girl beauty!  This is Brigitte the Beautiful Bride and I matched her up with My Minds Eye papers.  I also used a doily and CC Designs Cutters Heart and Scalloped Heart die.  I stamped the sentiment on a CC Designs Cutter Scrolling Banners die.

Okay, I am off now.  It's my dad's birthday so I have to get some gardening done before we go and celebrate with a family dinner - ttfn!


Going my way?

Happy Saturday all!  And it looks like it is going to be hot and sunny here in the South East corner of the UK today - hoorah, summer has arrived!  But who knows how long for?!  Still, we are going to make the most of it by going to the coast with our two furballs, have a long walk and then sit at our favourite spot in the sun and have a BBQ - bliss!  I hope whatever you are doing makes you as happy as I will be today!

So today MilkCoffee Stamps are sponsoring Sketch Saturday and I was invited to be do guest spot for them so here is my card...




Isn't she beautiful?  This is Tiffany Goes On Holiday and I matched her up with Carta Bella Cool Summer papers and Pink Petticoat yellow gingham paper for the clouds.  I'm sure I like how this card turned up but she was sure cool to colour in!

Okay, I am off now, have a lovely day!

There She Goes blog hop challenge - introducing PANDAmonium!

It's day four and the last day of the There She Goes new release sneak peeks and we are showing a new stamp set by Whimsie Doodles!  I am super excited about this set called PANDAmonium because it's full of...guess what?... super cute pandas!



 
I loved colouring in all of these pandas but today I have just one Trendsetter card to show you...

Awww!  So adorable!!!  I used papers by Digital Design Essentials Happy Place papers and it kept it simple with just a few buttons for embellishments.

You can check out more gorgeous Trendsetter inspiration from the inlinkz below and check out all the deets here.  And don't forget to join in with the blog hop and leave comments along the way for a chance to win prizes!

Thanks for joining us for our sneak peeks!  I will be back later with my Bellarific Babe post!

Wishes can come true - just believe!

Hi everyone and a happy Bellarific Friday to you!  Yep, it's that time of the week again and this time we had a sketch to follow but before I get onto that I have SAD news - fab Bella Babe Pauline is stepping down from the team.  She is one of the most sweetest and supportive teamies ever but at least I have made a good friend and will continue to stay in touch with her regardless.  Bye bye Pauline - I will miss you from the team!

Back to my Bellarific Babe make, here is my take on the sketch...



As you can see, I flipped the sketch on its side and used Uptown Girl Faith the Fairy along with it's matching sentiment.  I matched her up with Carta Bella Paris Girl papers, some paper flowers and touches of Stickles glitter glue around her dress and shoes.

Our next Bellarific Friday theme is to use buttons - my favourite embellishment!  Email your creations to Em by next Thursday 4 July. Thanks for visiting and I'll be back later with my There She Goes June release post!

There She Goes blog hop challenge - introducing Amalia's Daisy and Cinnamon!

It's day two today of the There She Goes new release sneak peeks and we are showing two newbies by Megan Suarez of Dilly Beans fame - Amalia's Daisy and Cinnamon!  But before I get onto my Trendsetter make, I have sad news :(  Talented Sandra and Thesresa are leaving the team and I will miss them soooo much! But of course I'll keep on visiting them in blogland so they are never far away!  Okay, so back to the sneak peeks!





Here is my Trendsetter make using Amalia's Daisy...



This is such a sweet set!  I know daisies are white but I thought the pop of colour would be better with the My Minds Eye papers!  You can check out more gorgeous Trendsetter inspiration from the inlinkz below and check out all the deets here.  And don't forget to join in with the blog hop and leave comments along the way for a chance to win prizes!

I used Julie Billingsley Summer Lovin' papers and framed her using Lil' Inker Designs photo frame die and My Favorite Things sun die topped off with a button.  I can't decide whether this will be a "thinking of you", birthday or even a congratulations card yet!


This is also my last DT card for By Lori Designs - it's been fun being with the team again and thanks to Lori for her fab creations!  You can check out more Tuesday Inspiration over at the blog here and I'll be back later with my There She Goes Trendsetter post!

There She Goes blog hop challenge - introducing This Is My Life

(Please scroll down for my CC Designs DT post)


It's new release week for There She Goes and we have four days of sneak peeks before they are in the shop!  Today we are showing you a very fun set that can be used on cards or layouts - This Is My Life by illustrator Torico!  I think it's perfect for those late teenagers to early 20 year olds out there.

 



Here is my Trendsetter make...



I think my 20 year old nephew will love this!  I matched this stamp up with Digital Design Essentials Happy Place papers, plain Little Miss Muffet party bunting and finished off with a little black button.

It's time to review the All That Scraps Sweet November May release and here is my make using Lil Lad Frisbee Damon and AmyR Stamps Oh So Beachy set...



Damon is so cool!  I matched him up with Echo Park Paradise Beach papers with a few iridescent sequins to make it pop a bit.  You can check out more summery Tickled Pink inspiration over at the blog here.

Is this present big enough for you?

I'm here today with another Lili Of The Valley design team make.  I decided to make a birthday card so here it is using the very sweet Big Present...

I just wanna cuddle this little fella!  He is so adorable!  The sentiment in the inside is from the LOTV Handwritten clear stamp set and I used Echo Park papers, finished off with a touch of string.

Wine? Yes please!

Happy Sunday all and I hope you are enjoying your weekend!  I have one of my Bellarific Babe cards to share with you today using the gorgeous Uptown Girl Opal the Optimist...


Well I'm not going to go on about how much I love my Uptown Girls - I don't want to bore you again with that old news!  I matched her up with Zoe Pearn Happiness Is papers and just a touch of a scallop border - very simple but you don't need much to showcase that gorgeous girl!

Thanks for visiting me and I will see you later on my blog rounds!

Cocktail time!

(Please scroll down for my There She Goes DT post!)


For Bellarific Friday this week we had the theme of "Summer" - well we did actually have a day of it on Tuesday but it's disappeared again!  I just had to get out my newest Uptown Girl fave, Sandy and her Sombrero...

Oh to be on a beach surrounded by tropical Hibiscus flowers!  The papers are from the Bo Bunny Barefoot and Bliss collection and I used my very old Quickutz sunshade die that I inked up with a couple of shades of brown.

Our next Bellarific Friday theme is the sketch below.  Email your creations to Em by next Thursday 27 June. Thanks for visiting and I'll be here tomorrow with my Doodlelicious Diva post!
