TGF Taylah banner card

What a silly Billy I am, I made this card to fit a few challenges and thought I'd have a card ready for my girlfriend's little girl who's Birthday isn't until December. Her family is very into Aussie Rules Footy and I thought she went for the same team as her brothers and Dad which is a navy blue coloured team. She actually follows her Mum's team which is black and white stripes! Then I've added the "9" but she actually turns 10 this year! Hmmm... so now I need to find a 9 year old girl called Taylah who supports Carlton or this card is just for fun lol.

The gorgeous bling and flower are from Flourish with a Bling and you can buy them HERE.  The sweet girl is from The Greeting Farm and the papers are Echo Park.

Elisabeth Bell lounge room card

Hi there, Paper Crafting Journey have just started their latest challenge and it's one of my favourites - Pearls and swirls. The sponsor is none other than the fabulous Elisabeth Bell therefore we got to play with an Elisabeth Bell image this time round. Straight away this gorgeous crafty girl image felt like it should be part of a little scene and I have wanted to try making "wallpaper" on a card for ages as so many designer papers have a wallpaper pattern to them. I made the little frame and plant pot with some wood-printed paper and distressed their edges. 

The beautiful pearl flourish and "plant" (part of the Jack vine set) is from Flourish with a Bling and you can buy them HERE.

Flourish with a Bling are a retail store as well as wholesale so you can buy direct from us now! We have some fantastic themed packs (eg.

Saturated Canary Lovely card

Hi everyone, I have created a card with Saturated Canary's "Lovely" image, isn't she gorgeous? I cropped her as she's full length and I wasn't feeling in a particularly confident mood when I printed her lol. Her dress is absolutely beautiful but I really struggle with "creases" so I decided to colour just her top half for my first time colouring her. 

The gorgeous shabby chic pink peg is from Pin and Tack, what a lovely prize it was, the pegs came in a lovely little basket too. They sell them HERE. The metal cornices, filmstrip and shabby heart came from Live and Love Crafts and the pearl flourish is from Flourish with a Bling and you can buy it HERE.
