LOTV Meets WOC For A Mini Hop :)

Picture 007c copy   

Good morning peeps and what a lovely Sunday morning it is too :)
It’s a bit nippy but the sun is out and I'm sure it will warm up as the day goes on.

And a very sunny Sunday morning welcome to the

Lili of the Valley Designers Mini Hop!! 

You seemed to enjoy the last one so we thought we’d have a mini hop every month.  

As well as Lili of The Valley, this month we are so happy to be sponsored by Wild Orchid Crafts. Hugest of thanks  to them both and there are mystery prizes from them both along the way :)

This month, the DT are showcasing  stamps from the latest release and we hope that you enjoy sharing our ideas along the way. You never know, you may even be one of the lucky ones and win a prize:)

You have to be innit to winnit lol!!!

My chosen stamp for the hop is Meant To Be …..

Picture 001c copy

… and this is what I did with it.

I coloured it with these Copics -

Skin -  E000, E00, E11, E21, R00, R20

Hair – E25, E29, E33, E41, E42, E50, E81

The rest – E29, E43, E50, E81, R85, RV0000, RV000, RV00, YG0000, YG03

and the papers are from the Grin n Bear It collection by Nitwits.

I used this lovely natural cotton lace from Wild Orchid Crafts and it was so nice that I did an extra row. I think it looks quite pretty doubled up :)

An array of bloomage and all of it gorgeous.I used …. 30mm white with pink centre mulberry paper roseswhite mulberry paper flower gardenia spraypale pink small gardenia flowers,  and the white blossoms are new so Im not sure what they are called but I’ll update this when I do.

And of course they are all from Wild Orchid Crafts

So that’s my card for the hop and don’t forget that there are 4 amazing prizes hidden along the way.

If you want to be in with a chance, all you have to do is leave a comment on each of the participating designer’s blogs (below). We will then choose the 4 winners from our mystery prize blogs on Wednesday, two LOTV prizes and two WOC prizes.

The DT taking part in this mini hop are:

Dena
Fleur
Pops
Anne
Bev

So enjoy the rest of the hop sweet peeps and have a lovely Sunday.

I’m off to start the prep for lunch as we are eating early today. My lot are coming over and we are having roast beef and loads of Yorkshire puddings (or Yorkshire cakes as Kyla calls them. But before that, me and Miss K are baking a choccie cake for afters.  She is chomping at the bit so I better get off and sort her out.

Huggiest of hugs to all xxx
