In The Pink (Just For A Change!!!)

 

Good morning sweet peeps and a very Happy Sunday to everyone.
It's time for the monthly  Ribbon Girl Magnolia Only Challenge and this month our theme is

Add A Die Cut

And that's it :)
A nice easy peasy one for you to join in with and aren't there some FAB dies about at the mo :).

We have 2 sponsors and prizes for you -

Our regular sponsors, Magnolia of Sweden will be sending our randomly chosen winner a stamp direct from Tilda HQ ....

... and Ribbon Girl are giving a £10 voucher towards a spending spree in the Ribbon Girl online store.

So ...

.. this is what I did.

I deviated from my usual 6x6 offering and made a base card using Spellbinders - Nestabilities Decorative Elements - Labels Eight - you can probably see this better on the last but one pic)

The image is Poppy Tilda and I coloured her with these Copics -

Skin - E000, E00, E11, E13, R00, R02
Hair - E31, E35, E39, E50
Clothes & Flower - E42, R85, RV0000, RV000, RV01, RV02

No patterned paper today peeps  - not like me I know!!!
We really are deviating aren't we!!!!

Oooh a host of loveliness from The Ribbon Girl

16mm Pink/White No 113 Berisford Pencil Stripe Ribbon, White Kort & Godt Chrysanth, Beaded Berries Pink/Pale Pink, Sparkle Rose Pink/White, Hip Rose Buds Pink/White Two Tone, Sweetheart Blossom Baby Pink & White Pink

I think you can safely say I went for PINK today :)

  

I just HAD to use my new La La Land Hear Banner  (again!!) and I added some more pretties from The Ribbon Girl - Sugar and Spice Self Adhesive Pearls and a few dabs of White Opal Liquid Pearls which you can just about see.

  

You can see the base card a bit better here. 

 

 

So that's me done for today.

We are off to a Christening later on. Its the granddaughter of my friend Joyce - little Niamh Poppy :) I still haven't got a clue what I will be wearing (I'm writing this up on Saturday afternoon so I still have time to sort it  and check me out getting ahead of meself with the post!!)

I'm off now to finish off some stuff that needs to leave here on Monday so I better crack on. Have the loveliest of Sundays and see you soon as soon.

Hugs to all xxxx

Luscious Lime & Verryy Sparkly Too ;)

Hi lovely peeps and hope you are all OK today.

It’s that time of the week when we head across the water and catch up with our friends over at the Simon Says Stamp Challenge and this week our challenge is ….

Emboss It

and you can either heat or dry emboss here, or even both if you fancy it!!

The design team have created some awesome projects for your inspiration, and this week we are all featuring Stampendous products. Of course, you don't have to use them to join in but we would love to see them used if you have them :-)

As always, our lovely Heidi is giving away a fabulous …

… for one lucky winner to spend …

…right here.

So …..

… this is what I did and please excuse the terrible pic peeps.

I had the prettiest glitter ever and just HAD to use it for this challenge and it’s from the Stampendous GLITTER KIT PRETTY PRINCESS Ultra Fine Sparkle kit. 

What a beautimous colour!!!

What I did was to lay strips of 1cm DST on a piece of card, whip off the backing strip and sprinkle with the glitter - it makes a nice background I think.

The dies I used are Spellbinders FANCY LATTICE Shapeabilities Expandable Pattern Dies and Spellbinders DECORATIVE LABELS 8 Eight Nestabilities. Both of these are new this year and they are newbies to me as well. I LOVE them, espesh the fancy lattice – no end of possibilities with this one.

I expect that this isn't the last you’ll see of them on here peeps!!!

Here’s where I did me embossing.

I die cut the bloom using a Spellbinders Rose Creations set then ran the pieces through a Cuttlebug  Swiss Dots Embossing Folder before putting it all together :)

So that’s me done for now and I’m off to do some more work. The pile is going down but soooooooooooooooooooooooo slowly. Why is it that it grows at a much faster rate I wonder?????

Have the fabbiest of days and huggiest of hugs to all xxxx
