Bizzy Bec's Inspiration - Popping Up With Lacey

Hi, I here with you today with something a little different for me.
Instead of just sharing my finished card, am going to share how I popped her out from the card.
If you have been card making for a while you will already know how to do this but if there are any newbies reading it might be helpful.


First I stamped Stamping Bella Lacey has a letter twice. Once on left over paper and once on the layer I want to use on my card.
Then I cut out the dress and head with sharp fine point scissors.



Then I coloured my main image.  The parts that will be covered  I coloured minimally to save ink in my promarkers.
Then I coloured up the cut out pieces.



Then I added foam tape to the cut outs and added them to the image. 


To finish I added Lawn Fawn Big Scripty words stamp and Big Scripty words lawn cuts "thanks"
I also diecut some Memory Box Puffy Clouds to add to the background.




Thanks so much for visiting us today and be sure to check out more inspiration from the Design Team members on the Bizzy Bec's Store Blog :)

Huggly Little Hedgehogs

Time for our new challenge over at SOUTHERN GIRLS, brought to you by the fabulous team Lou.
This fortnight we want to see SPARKLE!

Our very spectacular sponsors are Krafter's Cart and Polkadoodles.



For my card I have used Happy Hedgehogs by MFT - Follow the link to find it at Krafter's Cart.

Super cute set...

And if you like diecutting your stamps, there is a matching die set to go go with the stamp set.
I coloured my images with promarkers before cutting them out and adhering them on the card base with foam tape.
I had already diecut the "FRIENDS" into the card base and layered the sparkly silver paper onto the card base.
Nice and easy and VERY cute.

Thanks loads for dropping by

For my card I used Stamping Bella Rudolph with a present on top rubber stamp coloured with promarkers.

ANZAC tribute

Today is ANZAC day here in New Zealand ans Australia.
The 25th is also my post day for Bizzy Becs.
So I have decided to make today's card a tribute to all those that gave and give their lives to defend us.

I have used an image from Flower Festival from Penny Black..

Unfortunately I had to hand write the sentiment and my writing is pretty hohum.

I coloured the image using H20 watercolours.

Thanks for dropping by,
Lou
