Fairy Love Shaker Card (Lawn Fawn stamps)

Hi Crafty Friends,

Sometimes it's nice to try something new isn't it? I am still practicing shaker cards, I still don't feel like I've nailed them. I was lucky enough to win this little fairies set from Lawn Fawn, aren't the gorgeous? I decided to use lots of stars I've had in my stash for ages, the sparkly glass type ones and the shaker style stars.

For you bird card (Tiddly Inks image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

I have a couple of Tiddly Inks cards to show you and I need to be quick as their challenge ends in 15 mins, arghhhh lol!!! I created this card for a magazine that I needed to use 1 piece of 12x12 patterned paper for 7 cards. As you can see I used it sparingly on this card hehe! You can find the sweet little birds at Tiddly Inks and I just added the "for you" on their little note pads with a Sharpie pen.

Cat in an umbrella Birthday card

Hi Crafty Friends,

I have had this image for so long I don't know where it's from now as I didn't used to save them with the artist's name like I do now. It could have even been from a colouring book freebie as that's where I first started finding my images before I'd heard of digi stamps :)

Dog with gifts Birthday Card (DigiStamp Boutique image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

Ahh how I love a DigiStamp Boutique doggie image, they're so sweet! Love this one and you can colour it up to suit a boy or girl. This time I've used it to create a boys card although it could probably just pass for a girl's card too (I've not added it to any girl themed challenges). I am loving my stitched square dies, don't know how I lived without them for so long lol.
