Hula hula dance

This week's theme over at the La-La Land Crafts blog is summertime fun and here is my DT make using the gorgeous Hula Marci and Cherry Blossom Flower dies...

This stamp just makes me want to go to Hawaii!  She's so beautiful.  I matched her up with My Minds Eye papers and also used a Clearly Besotted wave edge die (I'm entering this into their current anything goes challenge).

Check out more summertime fun over at the La-La Land Crafts blog.  I'll be back this weekend with my Doodlelicious Diva and Lili of the Valley posts - ttfn!

Congrats!

There's a new Whimsie Doodles monthly challenge starting today and this month's theme is CONGRATULATIONS!  So, graduations, weddings, new job - anybody that needs congratulating!  For my Doodlelicious Diva I decided to take the opportunity to make a card for a pregnant friend...

I love this lady!  She is called Expecting and I matched her up with Echo Park papers and a La-La Land Crafts banner die, topped off with a few sequins and iridescent gems.  I also used my new Clearly Besotted Congrats word die (my first ever purchase of this brand and I'm lovin' them!) and I'm going to enter my card into their anything goes challenge.

I used my Promarkers to colour her in this time as I find Copic colours tend to be far too bright.  I love the muted tones of the Promarkers and really should use them more!

Check out more Doodlelicious Diva inspiration and get all the deets over at the blog here.  I'm off now but I'll be back later with my SugarPea Designs DT post - see you then!
