Spring dreams

Hello lovelies, hope you are well and having a lovely weekend! Today I am sharing some more DT creations that I have designed for the 'Once upon a Springtime' challenge over at Gecko Galz

To create my first card, I have used this darling vintage photo and beautiful papers. I have also created a flower collage using cheesecloth, a vibrant yellow rose and soft blue cherry blossoms. 

The sweet girl image is from the Little Miss colorful collage sheet. Background paper is from the My Wedding paper collection and the beautiful spring paper is from the Dreams of Spring mini paper pack.

These wonderful papers are from the Yesterday paper collection from Lemoncraft. The sweet vintage girl photo is also from the Little Miss colorful collage sheet. 

To complete my card, I have created another flower collage using pink and white roses and white pearl stamens. Thanks so much for stopping by, I really do appreciate your visit!

A vintage journal

Hello lovelies, hope you are well! today I am sharing some pages from my vintage journal that I created a short while back. I have seen so many amazing journals online, that I was inspired to create my own! 

I found this lovely vegan leather mini journal and thought it was the perfect size to work with! 

I found it quite difficult to break my first page, but once I surrounded myself with some of my vintage goodies, I found it went smoothly! I have had these Tim Holtz paper dolls laying around in my stash for some time now, so I had to break the package open and use them on my pages! 

I love creating in my journal and I wish that I had started much sooner! Thanks so much for stopping by, I really appreciate your visit!

Top of the Mornin'

Hello lovelies, hope you are well! There's a brand new challenge over at Artsystamper the theme is 'Green green, it's green they say'! and the winner will receive a wonderful prize from the Artsystamper shop. 

For my DT creation I wanted to design a card for St Patrick's day. Here I have used the wonderful Lucky Oxalis digital stamp and paper kit, (which is half price through St Patrick's day.) 

To create my card, I layered these beautiful papers from the kit on to the front of a pre-scored Kraft card, the edges of the paper have been distressed with Walnut Stain Distress ink. 

Next, I tore a sheet of paper from my vintage French dictionary. I like to collect old books from Thrift stores and I love adding vintage paper into my artwork!  

I also adhered this darling St Patrick's day vintage image which I found on Pinterest. 

Finally I added these lovely pre-coloured stamps from the kit and printed out a sentiment. 

I hope that you will join in with the challenge over at Artsystamper the DT would love to see your wonderful creations! You can create anything, a card, tag, layout etc and you are not required to use an Artsystamper image, however, if you do you will gain an extra entry into the draw! 

Thanks so much for stopping by, see you on the next one!

Hello lovelies, hope you are well! today I am Guest Designing over at The Funkie Junkie Boutique, it is such an honour to create a design for the 'Love is all around challenge'.

Halloween ATC's

Hello lovelies, hope you are well! I hope that you had a safe and spooktacular Halloween! I have been busy making Projects for the spooky season and now they are finally complete, I can share them here: 

I have created a few artist trading cards using these darling vintage images from Polly's Paper Studio.

I have used a selection of papers from Digital Curio and the Orange paper is from Eyeinspire; which I stamped using a Kaisercraft grunge background stamp and Black soot distress ink. 

I cut some black card measured at the standard ATC size 2.5 Inches x 3.5 Inches. Then I adhered my chosen papers. I have also used some spooky paper banners from the Halloween paper kit from Eyeinspire.
