Lili of the Valley Design Team - Just Married!

        Good Morning!
As many of you I'm sure will know, finding time to craft when you have a little one isn't that easy! However I seemed to be on a roll the other weekend when I managed the cards for my previous two posts and I even managed to throw in a third!
One of my friends got married last week so it wasn't the perfect opportunity to create something using one of the recent designs from LOTV.INGREDIENTS -
LOTV 'Just Married' Stamp & Sentiment Stamp
First Edition & DCWV Embossed Stack Papers
Paper Doily, Flowers, Button & Ribbons
Clear & Pink Dew Drops
Copic Ciao Markers

HAPPY CRAFTING!

It's been a few months since I last had something to share with you all. Between every day life and keeping up with my Allotment I haven't had time to craft but last weekend I finally had time to get something made!

Today's card is for the new challenge over at PENNY BLACK SATURDAY CHALLENGE.
This month's challenge is 'Anything Goes with the Option of  'Things with Wings!'
I haven't followed the optional theme, instead opting to make a floral card instead.INGREDIENTS -

Creative Inspirations April Challenge & LOTV DT!

                 Good Morning!
This month's challenge over at CREATIVE INSPIRATIONS is 'Easter/Spring!' 
This month the prize is from myself so the DT have all used images of their own choice for the challenge. This meant I was able to combine the challenge with making something with one of the new LOTV designs released last month. This design is called 'Bird House' and I kept the card sentiment free so that it could be adapted to a birthday / thank you card in the future if needed.INGREDIENTS - 
'Bird House' Digi Stamp by LOTV
Maja Design Papers
Paper Doily & Ribbon
Dew Drops & Pearls
Copic Ciao Markers
