Pion's Florals and GDT for Fussy and Fancy

Morning Everyone,

Did you miss me on Monday? I missed posting for LLC, but I swapped to Friday so that I could guest for the Fussy and Fancy Challenge blog who just happens to be sponsored by your favourite one stop vintage craft shop, ......... yep Live and Love Crafts. So if you want to be in with a chance to win some LLC stash the challenge theme is Vintage.

I hope you have enjoyed the girl's showcasing the new Pion Design Flower Frames gorgeous papers this week. I have used the 6x6 Chrysanthemum sheet and I love lemon with black, so probably a little different from what you usually get from me but I love how this turned out.

The image is also from Kort and Godt Vintage Wedding image sheet and and the butterflies on the front of the criss cross card are also cut from the same sheet.

Did you notice the paperclip butterflies. Gorgeous aren't they. They are by Pink Paislee and have just arrived at LLC, yes you can buy them now. I added some co-ordinating black cardstock to the back, but doesn't it make them stand out.

I have used black tulle down the sides and on the top of the inside panel. I have also edged the criss cross section with 3mm string pearls.

The Queen of Sheba gold lace goes so well with these papers. I have also added two styles f vintage pearl pins to the flower arrangement; crown tear drops and capped tear drops.

The flower arrangement consists of cream flower spray and kort and godt chrysanthemums, carnations and large rose bud all sprayed with a copic marker.

And last but certainly not least a little prima trinket from the "Rondelle" set, these are gorgeous and add that lextra special touch to your project. I have added a Range Pen Nib to the centre of the butterfly on the bottom right, love these.

For the centre of the inside panel I used Marianne Design Die Anjas Vintage 3 Ornaments die and added a carnation to the centre. All panels were stitched my machine.

Have a great weekend and I will be back on Monday.

Whispers of Love

Morning Crafters,

I have combined two of my DT's, namely Live and Love Crafts, the beautiful vintage store and Crafts and Me with one of the new release Digital Vintage Images. The theme we are following over at LLC is Summer and the challenge at Crafts and Me is "Something Old". So you can see the image and the vintage embellishments were perfect for both teams and with my mojo lacking, helped me tackled two birds with one stone, so to speak.

I didn't quite have enough blue embellishments so I used my copic airbrush system and added a touch of blue to the Hortensias and one of the little seashells. The image is called Whispers of Love and is available HERE and was just perfect for a Summer card and with the little girl holding a shell to her ear, the ideal opportunity to add some shell embellishments too.

I have used the Pion Design Vintage Garden Ornament in Blue. I added a grey crotchet flower and added the cream leaf from the Prima fabric flower Chantelle Doily set along with some of those dainty Hortensia's, flower spray and a Kort and Godt Rolled Rose in Blue.

The little ensemble to the right consists of the seashells, Hortensia, the new Roman Numerals with some aged Aqua frantage, one of my favourite colours, an Idea-ology corked Vial bottle, which I will add a little sentiment in later and I cut out the flower ticket from the Vintage Garden 6x6. Just above this collection is a Pion Design Butterfly and a metal rose, also frantaged in Aged Aqua in the centre. The doily just under this section has also some aged aqua scattered, looks fab in real life.

And here we have some of Sandy's internationally famous vintage seam binding, finsihed off with a clay heart and 2mm string pearls and attached to a Magnolia So Wrapped Lovely Tag. Lots of Gesso and a sprinkling or two of snow tex, here and there hehehe.

The beautiful pearl lace at the bottom has been layered onto some Ribbon Picot and don't they look like they were made for each other.

Thank you for visiting and I'm sorry I was so late, dam Cameras! Be sure to check back tomorrow, I know Tina will have a fabulous Vintage creation that I just know I will be drooling over.

Hugs Tracy xn

Busy Little Gardeners

Morning Crafters,

It's a bank holiday in the UK today and the sun is set to shine, yippeeee. Well my Son has started to venture off on longer journey's in the car on his own this weekend and it's kinda of weird. I'm so used to having him home that he left after Hubby had programmed the Satnat to avoid the motorway, and me and Hubby went for a walk with Ollie. I said goodbye to my Daughter and reminded her to lock up after she goes out for the evening. We arrived back home an hour later and I said to my Husband have you got the key..... he looked at me and said no, have you.. Lol, we were locked out. I had to call my Daughter and ask her to come home to let us in, she wasn't happy with us, lol. Guess we'll get used to noone being at home anymore.... sob, sob, sob.

My card today is my DT card for Live and Love Crafts, the theme that the DT are following this week is "Animals". The Girls are really so talented that hop on over and become a follower if you aren't already, you won't want to miss the inspiration and all those yummy goodies that LLC stock. I have used a Lili of the Valley image, and water coloured with distress inks, aren't these two gardeners just the cutest. The laces are absolutely gorgeous and I have used 3 varieties, all thumbnail links below as usual.

The beautiful papers are by MajaDesign Vintage Summer Basics 1921, really love this paper, in fact I have just ordered some more, lol.

The mini bark heart was stamped with the text from the Magnolia Butterfly kit. The wooden butterfly was embossed with the shabby white frantage and an Idea-ology game spinner and pearl added to the centre.

I have used shabby rose frantage on the 2mm beads around the image. Add edges have been distressed with gesso and snowtex. The little watering can charm is from TheRibbonGirl and perfect for these little cuties.
