Love Letters sneak peek

a

On Saturday I had a sort out of my Christmas stamps and downloaded and printed some new images and sentiments from Lili of the Valley ready to make a start on some cards.  I made this one yesterday and am planning on making more today after a few chores.

This sweet elephant and sentiment are from the new Love Letters set which launches on 8th Jan along with 3 other new sets. I used the digis but they will also be available as polymer stamps.  I coloured it with Copics.  The paper is Dovecraft Finding Paradise.  I used some new Memory Box dies Cecilia flowers along with some older leaf dies.

I chose a Secret Santa pack from Dies to Die For one of my Christmas presents and I was so pleased with how much I got in it. You are guaranteed at least twice the price paid but I got much more than that.  The Memory Box dies were one of the die sets I got.  I don't buy anywhere near the amount of craft stuff I used to but I have ordered 2 more distress oxides and some everyday Card-io stamps with some Christmas money from my Mum.  I want to try making more Birthday cards with Card-io stamps for a change.
