Favourtie Colour

Morning Everyone,

Tracy here starting the week off again and this week the theme we are all following is "our favourite colour" so it will come as no surprise to you that I have chosen one of my favourite colour combos of blue, cream and white.

The image is from Inkido Vinrtage Angels sheet, love these and I have placed it into a Marianne Design   Anja's circles die.  The outer die was cut from the Pion Design Days of Winter Church 12 x 12 sheet. with layers behind from Pion Desing Days of Winter Birds.




I added some Snow flakes on the edges and covered with diamond dust, really sparkly.  The Marianne Design lampost is decorated with cream flower spray, ivory baby rose buds and Kort and Godt Ruffle Roses.  You can also see the Princes Grace lace peeking through the bottom, my absolute favourite lace at LLC.


I have used the same flowers as above on the left hand side but added a chrysanthemum, 30mm wild rose, star pin coming out at the top and a little vintage angel sitting at the bottom.  You will also see that I stamped the text Carte Postale from the Stempleglede Postcard From Paris set.



An artsy view finishing off with the Marianne Design Bow at the bottom cut from the matching Pion papers a Vintage pearl centre attached to the middle.


Lastly and certainly not least, look at these cute little rustic bells attached to the tag at the top and tied with the hemp twine.

A Walk to School

Afternoon Everyone,

I'm excited to be sharing with you today one of the new Saturated Canary images from Little Darlings latest release.  I have used two stamps, the School House and  Novel.  I have coloured them with distress inks.  I have also added a sentiment which is also from LDRS's latest release called Vintage Affections Release 2 Friends.

The flowers, doily, resin corner and gesso  from Live and Love Crafts and the lace is from The Ribbon Girl.

I have used the Fabulous Marianne Design window again and opened it up to make it a summer scene, love the versitality of this window.



I have used a Noor Design die for the leaves and also a Marianne Design die for the fern style leaves.




I have added a Noor Design border die to the top, love this one.


The vintage sentiments sets from Little Darlings are just gorgeous, honestly, you will want the whole set of them and more fabulous ones to come.  I added it onto a spool and decorated with a little flower.




If you are interested in learning to colour with distress inks then you can join me at Kit and Clowder.

Let it snow.....


Hi Everyone,

Firstly I'm sorry I haven't been about much this past week, with last minute shopping and then taking my son to University this week I have been a busy Mum and a sad one too :{  I'm sure he's having a great time and forgotten us already, but it will take me a while to get used to it.  I do have a couple more cards to put on so I will be playing catch up this week.  A huge thank you to my regular visitors, I really do appreciate you :)

So it's Monday and time for my LLC DT card.  This week Sandy has tasked us with the theme of "Autumn" and I know your peeking at my card and thinking this is not Autumn and your right, it isn't, lol.  So what is my interpretation of Autumn..... well I have taken the colours...... shades of reds, green, a little orange and some rustic brown.  Speaking of rustic brown have you seen all the new products in store at LLC...... rustic stars and bells to name a couple and look no further than my card...

*** I have now added this card to my Etsy Store but if you go to this link   http://etsy.me/1ymSuCR  Etsy will give you £5 towards your first purchase ***




I love this image by Lili of the Valley and I have coloured these two girls with distress inks and don't forget if you would like to learn please check out my colouring class and Kit and Clowder.

I used the Maya Design It's Christmas Time 6 x 6 paper pad and the took the "Let it snow" text from the bottom strip of the Maya Design Vintage Frost Basics Chritmas Die Cut sheet.


I added some of the new Maya Road Burlap trim and added the button trim to the centre.

Love the new Star pins and you can see one poking out from the little flower arrangement and a little wooden heart thread with the new prima Vax cord.  I also used the Vax Cord along with the Bakers Twine on the bells.


I used the new Marianne Design Anja's Circle Die Set LR0327 as a doily and added the new prima paper flower along with some kort and godt berries and  20mm roses.


I added some shabby white frantage to the rusty bells and rustic Stars.  The bells were tied with Vax Cord along with the Bakers Twine.

The tag was cut from a Noor Design die.


I have also added stickles and gesso.


Can you see the new Jumbo Pom Pom.... I thought they looked light snow balls on the sides.
