Creative Inspirations - April Challenge

              Good Morning!
I just wanted to say thank you for the lovely comments regarding my newborn, I can't believe she's 6 weeks old already. Time is flying by! As you can imagine I haven't really had time to craft but I wanted to make sure I had something to share today so I managed to make this quickly whilst she was sleeping the other morning!

This month's challenge at CREATIVE INSPIRATIONS is 'Happy Easter' 
I've used some old design papers in my stash for today's card which included this lovely image of an Angel.INGREDIENTS -
Pion Design Papers
Paper Doily, Ribbon, Button & Dew Drops
Pearls & Doodlebug Sprinkles

Lili of the Valley Design Team - C&S Floral Thank You's!

    Good Afternoon!
As you know I welcomed my little baby girl 3 weeks ago and as you can imagine we received some cards & gifts from family and friends. I had a few Thank You cards that I needed to send so I decided to use my favourite pre-coloured images by LOTV to make a little batch of some quick cards.
The following 3 cards are all using floral images from a pad released many moons ago however these are available as Simply prints over on the website.

INGREDIENTS -
LOTV Pre-coloured Toppers (Simply Print versions available on the website)
LOTV & Penny Black Sentiment Stamps
Doodlebug Sprinkles

 Thanks for stopping by!
HAPPY CRAFTING!

The one advantage of not being able to sleep properly along with starting my Maternity Leave today (due date is next week) was that I managed to get a card made in the early hours of this morning. Rather fittingly I've also made a New Baby card.
I've used another of the new designs from LOTV and this one is called 'Balloon Bunny'.

INGREDIENTS -
LOTV 'Balloon Bunny' Digi & LOTV Sentiment
Maja Design Papers
Clear Dew Drops & Green Pearls
