If anyone of you bought the December edition of Simply Cards & Papercrafts, you may have seen six of my cards in there - what a thrill when I got my copy! Lili of the Valley had an article in there and I got to make cards for it with a birthday theme using the new sweet girlies which you can find in the store here.
So, here are my six cards up close and personal!
I also used the LOTV Handwritten Sentiments on them all. Whew! That was a lot of cards to make in one afternoon but I thoroughly enjoyed it. I even wrote up all of the instructions and tips too - that took ages but made me realise how much goes into each card!
Okay, I am off now. Apart from taking the dogs for a walk, I'm going to stay inside to keep warm and finish up my next batch of cards for the new SugarPea Designs release starting on Monday. What a great day this is going to be - hope yours is just as good!
