Let's catch up card (Saturated Canary image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

Ok, my latest card is using an image from one of my favourite digi stores, Saturated Canary. How gorgeous is she, being all ready to make a phone call with coffee and mobile in hand? I used a die cut for the banner sentiment, inking it before I took it out of the die. The hearts are wooden and I just inked them in pink too.



I have used part of a pink Chloe pearl flourish from Flourish with a Bling who are having an almighty sale this month! All our products are $2 each this month, that's more than half off most products!! I hope you'll check out our website as we have our own unique products and we post worldwide.

Just for you Bear with hearts (Stamp Fairy image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

Here's my second card to show for the evening and it is using a cute little bear from the Stamp Fairy. Unfortunately I don't think they are around any longer but if anyone knows their store please let me know. 

I had a lot of trouble trying to find papers to match him so in the end I decided on a crisp fresh white background instead. This is my version of clean and simple hehe. He and the sentiment letters are all on foam tape to give a little extra depth to the scene. 

I have a Saturated Canary card up next, hope you'll check it out :)

Love You more than the Stars card (Lacy Sunshine image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

I haven't blogged for the past week but I did manage to create some cards, just not always enough time in the day for posting them is there? I have tried and tried to take a good photo but this little card just wasn't having it so this is the best of the bunch I'm afraid. 

I have used an oh-so-sweet image from Lacy Sunshine, isn't she adorable throwing the hearts around, I just love her! 

I have used leaves and part of a pearl flourish from Flourish with a Bling who are having an almighty sale this month!

I cherish you card (Crafts & Me/Hannah Lynn image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

Although I've used similar colours in these 3 cards I've posted tonight, I think they all look quite different, especially this one. I was ultra-excited to colour up this beautiful image from Hannah Lynn (find her images at C&Me). The thing I most love about Valentine's Day themed cards is using red and pink together, its one of my favourite colour combinations in cardmaking. 

I have also used some leaves, pearls and the red flower from Flourish with a Bling. We are selling all our products at a ridiculous $2 each this month, that's more than half off most products!! I hope you'll check out our website as we have our own unique products and we post worldwide.
