Love you sew much

I am back on my mission to use some of my older card kits again, this card uses the January 2014 Simon Says Stamp kit.

This is a love themed kit and there are some really pretty papers included.

I am quite enjoying revisiting these older kits and it feels good to be using up some of my old stash!

A true love story ...

I have created this card using the beautiful NitWit Dearly Beloved collection.

I printed the topper several times so that I could add lots of fussy cut layers, I layered them up with foam pads for dimension.

I also added 3D Chrystal Lacquer to the little gems.

Young Love

This is a scrapbook page that I have created, I loosely followed Jen Fisher's 12 Months of Scrapbooking - January sketch - check out her YouTube video HERE.

The photograph is of my gorgeous eldest son and his beautiful girlfriend just before they went to their university Summer Ball last year - it has taken me a while to get around to making this!

I have used beautiful papers from the Polkadoodles Belle Papillon Vintage CD Rom.  I inked the edges of everything - the letters and butterflies are also from the CD.

Love Hearts

It's time for a new challenge at the Crafty Purple Frog, the theme for the next month is Love is all around - it can be a creation for a good friend, a wedding or your loved one, we just want to feel the love!

I used some beautiful papers from the First Edition Botanical Notes Paper Pad, I have distressed the edges of everything and inked them with Distress Ink for a Shabby Chic feel.

The butterflies are the Flit and Flutter dies from the Sara Davies Butterfly Lullaby Signature Collection and the flourish is the Fancy Flourishes die from the same collection.

I just added some pearls from my stash and a scruffy bow created from seam binding.

You make my heart soar

This is my card for this weeks Less is More Challenge, the theme this week is Balloons and I decided to use an adorable image from LOTV.

It's really good that LOTV are now selling their images in digital format, it's so useful to be able to resize them.  I have coloured my cute Odd Dog with Spectrum Noir Illustrator pens and added 3D Crystal Lacquer to the balloon.

The sentiment comes with the image, I just cut it into a banner and added some twine.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Less is More Challenge 313 - Balloons
Lili of the Valley Facebook February Challenge - Love
Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge - The Colour of Love
