Lili of the Valley Challenge

I cannot tell you how much I have been looking forward to today just to share with you the awesome new images from Lili of the Valley, I don’t know how they do it but each release just gets better and this one really is a stunner, It consists of 4 Girls, 4 boys, 2 babys and 2 Get Well images so everyone is covered here, I must say the Boys images really fill a gap in the market they are perfect.  They will be released at Midnight on 1st June and I don’t expect them to stay on the shelves for long,  all overseas shipping has been reduced to £3.50 and its free shipping for orders over £25.  The Lovely Kind Laila and Lisa from LOTV have also been really generous and given Lili of the Valley Challenge a complete set of stamps to offer as blog candy the candy is only open until Midnight on Saturday 29th May so hurry over to the Lili of the Valley Challenge to enter and be the first to have the complete set.

For this weeks Challenge  we also have another of  Bev’s awesome sketches  and everyone of the DT’s cards features a different Sneak Peek of the new Images.

I think this little baby is my favourite it is so easy to colour but so effective.  I have used my copics again and the gorgeous Bearly Mine digital download papers that are my new favourite buy.  I have also used the medium Cream Curly Wild Rose, Blue and White Cherry Blossom and blue tea roses from Wild Orchid Crafts.  The sentiment which I think is just perfect for this image is by Whiff of Joy .

I am sure you would not mind me showing you another sneak peek, this one is A Get Well Image

I don’t like the look of the Carrot medicine the poorly bunny has to take, bless him.  More papers from Bearly Mine Designs  and Roses from Wild Orchid Crafts and the image is again coloured with copics.    I will be posting lots more sneak peek during the next week.  Don’t forget to pop over to the challenge blog and join in the Candy and hopefully join us in this fortnights challenge.

Celebration

By now I should be confident when I have to do a scheduled post but I still worry, so I hope this works.  This week on A Spoonfull of Sugar Challenge we are celebrating our 2nd Birthday so the theme is CELEBRATE, we have lots of cards for you to see on the blog including cards from Zoe and Hannah the very talented daughters of Debbie and Nikki who started this great challenge and also from lots of our previous GDT, lots of candy too so don’t wait pop over and join in with our celebration, this week our challenge runs for 14 days so you have plenty of time to create something special.

You all know how daft I can be sometimes and I read the challenge as celebration not celebrate so I thought I would be different and make a Wedding Celebration card doh!!!!Anyway Debbie was kind enough to include it .  I have used the beautiful Whiff of Joy Wedding Carriage image and have used Distress Inks to colour.  The Papers are by Basic Grey and I have stamped and glittered Stemplglede Grunge Hearts on to the paper then added Glamour Dust to them, the word stamp is LOVE by Penny Black, the blue flower is from Magnolia and the Cherry Blossom and Rose Buds are by Wild Orchid Crafts .

See you tomorrow

A Summers Morning

Sorry not many words on here today, I should of done this post when I got up this morning instead of which I have left it until the last minute (in fact nearly forgot it) .

Its time for Whiff of Joy Challenge  and this week we have a colour choice for you YELLOW BROWN AND ONE OTHER COLOUR.  You can imagine my heart dropped when I saw Yellow, but in the  end I really enjoyed making this card, perhaps because it was a challenge.

This is a Whiff of Joy stamp from the Medieval  collection released last year, she just sums dup a summer morning perfectly.  I have used Distress Inks, nesties ovals, Cuttlebug Embossing folder, Martha Stewart Border Punch, Sizzix Corner Die and Liquid Pearls on here.  Hope you like.

Should be home later tonight so hope I have a card for you tomorrow.
