Onesie love!

It's Bellarific Friday and this week we had a sketch to follow so here is my Bellarific Babe card take on it...

This is Uptown Girl Brynn and Her Baby Shower and I used Echo Park Bundle of Joy papers and a Sizzix heart embossing folder.  I think I went a bit over the top with the shading - went a bit too heavy handed with the pen!

The next Bellarific Friday is to be inspired by the photo below...

Send your creations to Em by next Thursday for a chance to win some Bella Bucks!

Cupcake sweetness

Have you seen the lovely digital stamps by Jess College Fund yet?  As it says on the can, Jessica is for funding college so it's for a good cause buying them and it helps that the stamps are gorgeous!  She's put some new ones in her store and I had to colour up this cutie called Girl with a Cupcake...

Isn't she pretty?  I used papers from the Alphabet Soup collection by My Minds Eye and used a pretty Sizzix butterfly embossing folder.  I'm gonna colour up the little girl with the kitty kat next!

I gotta go now but I'll be back soon - ttfn!

Dressy girl

Hi everyone!  I hope you are having a lovely weekend.  It's been a beautiful day here in East Sussex.  We went for a long walk along the coast again with the dogs today and it was such a shame to have to come home.  One day we will buy that house with an ocean view!

So I'm here today with my Doodlelicious Diva card using the new and very sweet Dressy Girl...

Isn't she pretty?  This card took me ages to make as I couldn't choose which papers to use so I decided to keep it really simple with some Digital Design Essentials striped paper and used My Favorite Things heart border.  The sentiment is from the SugarPea Designs Gnome Sweet Gnome set.

Okay, I'm off to do some more design team creations.  I'll be back soon with another make - ttfn!

Deep in thought...

It's Bellarific Friday!  And Em has also decided to release the new Stamping Bella stamps today too so no more waiting to get your hands on these gorgeous goodies in the store later today!   So I decided to combine my DT make today with one of the newbies and this week's Bellarific Friday theme to use ribbon or washi tape...

Some of you may be thinking "hang on, I've seen this before!".  Well you'd be right and you'd be wrong, lol!  I used the wrong image so have now used the correct image plus I added a ribbon!  I also used BasicGrey papers and My Favorite Things rolled flower die.

So, check out the rest of the gorgeous DT inspiration over at Bloggabella.  The next Bellarific Friday is this sketch...

Lili of the Valley blog hop!

It's time for another Lili of the Valley design team blog hop to show you some inspiration of their latest products that will be available to buy from the store from midday GMT on Monday 24 February.

There are 6 new paper pads, 5 new art pads and a set of family sentiment tags.  And, of course, there are prizes!  We have a full set of the new paper pads to give away - 2 winners will each get 3 pads each and there is a third prize of the family sentiment tags.  Just join the blog hop, leaving comments along the way.  Winners will be randomly drawn and announced on Monday morning.

Here is my DT make using papers from the new Heartfelt pad and a sweet pre-coloured image from the new Bunnies art pad...

What mummy wouldn't love to receive such a sweet image?!  I am lovin' these pre-coloured pads - this card took me all of 15 minutes to make!  The sentiment is from the Handwritten Phrases stamp set and I simply finished it off with some die cut hearts and a punched butterfly with a pearl.

Here's a look at all of the new goodies...

Okay, so onto the hop!  You should have arrived here from the lovely Kathy and now need to hop off to the sweet Mindy.  If you get lost or want to join from the beginning, go to the Ideas to Inspire blog where you'll find all the deets too.

I'll be back tomorrow with my Whimsie Doodles' Doodlelicious Diva make!

A new SugarPea Designs challenge!

The new challenge SugarPea Designs starts today and the theme is easy again - anything goes!  Here is my DT make using two of this month's release sets - the house from the Gnome Sweet Gnome set and Mr Bunny from the One Big Hoppy Family set...

I love how these two sets work together - that Wendy is a clever girl, it means I get so much more from two sets!  I used a Stampin' Up embossing folder (discontinued, I think) and Lili of the Valley papers from the Petal Fresh collection.  I coloured the images with Prismacolor pencils for a softer, rustic look.

I hope you can join us this month - we would love to see what you're doing with these super sweet SugarPea Design stamps.  Just link up your creation to the blog here and while you're there, check out the gorgeous DT makes!

A glamorous Stamping Bella sneak peek!

Did you see that Stamping Bella has a new release out on 24 February?  It's a huge one - they are full of cuteness, glamour and fun!  Check out the sneak peeks over at Bloggabella.  Today I am snowing you a sneak peek filled with glamour - meet Marcelle Masquerade...

Somebody make me that dress!!  So beautiful - perfect for one of my glamorous city girlfriends!  I matched her up with Eiffel Tower patterned papers from the Carta Bella Paris Girl collection, generously sprinkled with Glamour Dust and topped off with a silver bow.  Here's a closer look at the bling...

Oh la la!  Now just to get my husband to take me somewhere suitable to wear it!  I bet you can't wait to get your hands on this baby - only a week to wait now!
