Good morning crafty friends and firstly, a very happy new year. Here’s to a wonderful 2016 and I hope that you are all safe and dry following the awful floods that have hit the UK.
Hugest apologies that I haven’t posted for quite a while - I have had real problems using Livewriter. I’ve managed to fix it now, which is no mean feat for somebody who is as technically challenged as me!!! So I am back in the land of the living, yayyyy.
There’s been a lot going on for sure, including losing Richard’s Mum and closing papertake after almost 8 years. It was a very tough decision to make but my head tells me it was the right thing to do. My heart however …….. : (
Now, on the last Papertake Challenge, I said that I was going to do a giveaway and you can finds the details at the end of this post - apols that it’s late but better late than never I guess xx
OK, enough waffle, what have I got to share today?
Well this is one of my cards from the fantastic Tonic Studios Pampered Pets release. Oh my, they are going to be so useful – and …..
… this is what I did. The sweet little kitty is Kittens Whiskers and it was cut using black card from an Essential Card Pack – Monochrome.
I added some Tonic Nuvo Dropsto make his eyes (Pearl White with the tiniest bit of Ebony Black on top, and thank you Edna for this brilliant tip) and a tiny bit of Sherbert Shimmer Nuvo Glitter Drops for his nose. The sentiment was made using Clarice Alphabet dies – upper and lower case sets, and the little heart is from Tonic Studios Expressions Sentiment Set - Live, Love, Treasure, Laugh – 368E.
The gorgeous swirl is Tonic Studios Frond Finesse. I really like this swirl, it’s so delicate and very versatile because you can chop it about
