It's A Floral Frenzy At Southern Girls....

The new challenge went up yesterday over at Southern Girls and we want to see flowers.... Lots and lots of flowers.

We are being sponsored for this challenge by Polkadoodles which is where that delightful image on my card comes from, her name is Winnie fruit punch and there is a great collection of images with her doing allsorts in the webstore.

I actually made this card at our monthly Otane Scrap day so it was kind of a limited supplies challenge for me too ;)

I coloured the image with promarkers and the sentiment and dies are from Stampin Up and the papers are October Afternoon from a 12x12 collection.

A very sweet Australian lass is now the proud owner of this card as she was here on holiday when her birthday arrived. 

Thanks so much for visiting my blog and I hope you will come and play along at SGC

Anything Goes at Bizzy Bec's

As always our challenge is Anything Goes so it makes it nice and easy for you to play along.

This is my card for this month...

I have used...
Pre Order Penny Black Fairy Sweet
Corner Die similar to Wild Rose Corner flourish

I used papers from Simple Stories and the image is coloured with copic markers.  

I cut the hello little one on my silhouette.

Thanks loads for dropping by to visit

Yay Kites

Hi, Louise here today to share with you a card made with the Lawn Fawn Yay Kites stamps and die sets.  These are available now for pre-order over at Bizzy Bec's shop.

This was my first time actually using a stamp set with a matching die and it was pretty simple.

My only tip would be use washi tape to hold the dies in place when cutting.

I coloured my images with markers and foam mounted some of them against the base of the card.

For the hills at the bottom of the card I used Stitched Hillside Borders also by Lawn Fawn

Thanks for joining me today and I hope you enjoyed my first post as a member of the Design Team  at Bizzy Becs :)

Card and Cupcake Box Set

Last year I was on a design team for a stamp illustrator and she asked me to make a project for her online magazine.

The magazine took nearly a year to go live and I was pretty disappointed that she hadn't let me know that she wasn't using my project or I could have posted it last year!

Anyway I will share it with you now and just to let you know the recipient thought it was fantastic so I guess that is what matters.

 So starting off with the card.....

Continuing with the cupcake box...

and here is the set together :)

I was thrilled with how they turned out and I for one am proud to share them.

Thanks for dropping by,

Lou

I used a sketch from I Heart Sketches for my card.
