Picture 015c copy

Morning peeps and we are bright and early today cos this is a bit of a combi post.

It’s my helping of Papertake Weekly – ness which this week is all about

Getting Cute

but it’s also a bit of a celebration because 

Wild Orchid Crafts and Lili Of The Valley have teamed up to host a

'Christmas In July Party'.

fifteen inch

The party started yesterday and will run for one week.

There’s sneak peeks of the new Lili Of The Valley Christmas release and the new Christmas Goodies from Wild Orchid Crafts. And no party would be complete without a little goodie bag so there’s candy all the way as well – woohoooo :)))))!!!

These creations will be featured on the
Wild Orchid Crafts Blog, LOTV Ideas To Inspire Blog
and also daily on the featured Designers Blogs so be sure to check it all out.

So here is my card.

This gorgeous image is one of the new LOTV releases and is called Build A Snowman. I coloured it with the following Copics -

E000, E00, E21, R11, R20 (skin), E33, E42, E50 (hair), B0000, B000, C00, C1, C3, C5, R17, R27, R59, YG0000, YG01, YG03, YG67 (clothes etc)

And if you fancy getting your mitts on this brand new stamp, all you have to do is leave your name with good old Linky-poo at the end of the post and I’ll draw the winner on 24th July. Don’t forget that I’ve also got some Wild Orchid Crafts Candy up for grabs  as well and you can check it out here.

And talking of Wild Orchid Crafts, here’s a couple of deet pics for ya me lovelies ……
