Little May

Good day

With a new designer on the block - Julia Spiri - I got this freebie and it just needed some colour and it had a feeling for butterflies, though my pink was not my first choice. My papers are from True Romance from Kaiser Craft. My die is from Spellbinder and is called Butterflies Circles.

Red & gold love

Good day

It is that time in the year where you are reminded of love, no matter where you go. In a sense it is such a good thing just to remind each other how important you are in my life.
My fun digi is from A Day for Daisies. The designer paper is from Claire Fontaine's paper touch and the gold foil paper from my stash. I used cord, ribbon and heart brads as embellishments to finish my card.

My heart flutter...

Good day

My first valentine's card for 2016! Just could not resist when I saw the colour block at The Outlawz colour challenge and this is what came to mind. The little image is a polymer stamp from My Penny Black's "Hugs" selection. The sentiment is computer generated and the butterfly a die from Couture Creations. I used some designer sellotape for the back ground!

Life is about....

HAPPY NEW Year!!!!

Hope you all have a freaking fabulous 2016!

Good day

I broke my distal radius beginning of  December, so I'm still in recovery, very slowly.

This past week I finished this image, Katnis on Fire from Sassy Studio Design, that I printed before I broke my arm. Somehow she asked to be elegant in a soft colour, though I saw her in beautiful vibrant colours too. I played with my favourite colour white in different prints. The sentiment I took out my book: Inspiration station by Betsy Flot. Luckily some of my favourite challenges decided to be two weekly, that will make my life easier, since I often miss the deadlines of weekly challenges.

Challenges I'm joining:
Glitter 'N Sparkle #171 - Monochrome
613 Avenue Create #159 - Elegant
Sweet Sketch Wednesday - 6 January 2016
Sassy Studio Design #316 - Shabby Chic
