Christmas shopping

I have an order for a Christmas card for a 20 year old and immediately knew which image to use. Jasmine is perfect for that age group and is of course a LOTV stamp. I coloured her with Copics and used Bo Bunny Altitude papers. The sentiment is from LOTV and I diecut a snowflake from aqua glitter card. I also added fun flock to her boots.

The last Jasmine for a while

This is the last of the four coloured art sheet Jasmine cards. This time I used a Lawn Fawn stitched circle die, MFT papers and pierced banner die, LOTV  teenage girl sentiment and some card candi.

Short and sweet post today.

Looking good

I have another of the Jasmine cards using the new coloured art sheet. The papers are MFT again and I used MFT wonky stitched circle and stitched jumbo banner dies. I used a very old Martha Stewart flower punch and a Fiskars tag punch. I also used some of my neglected card candi and a teenage girl sentiment from LOTV.  The MFT paper pads are certainly getting some use at the moment, I just love the colours and neat designs.

I am excited as tonight we going to a special event at a local independent department store to see one of my favourite crime authors, Elly Griffiths. We have the VIP package so will be having drinks and bowl food before she gives a talk and personally signs her new hardback which is officially launched tomorrow.  This is no 10 in one of the series she writes, which is set in Norfolk. I have read them all, so has my Mum. Graham doesn't read anywhere near as much as me but he is doing well, being on book 7 of this series.

Relaxing

This is the second of the cards I have made using the new LOTV coloured Jasmine art sheet.  I have the stamps set but it was nice to use a coloured image for a quicker card. The papers are MFT, flower die Nellie Snellen, pierced banner die MFT, sentiment LOTV teenage girls and I added some enamel dots. 

It's been very cold here with just a light dusting of snow a few times that froze on the garden and shed roofs but that is all.  Hope you are all staying warm. Glad I am not in mid west America, the weather there is awful.

Always follow the music of your heart

I was asked to make some samples using the new art sheets from LOTV. I love these Jasmine images and really enjoy colouring the stamps but of course the coloured art sheets do make for quicker cards. I have two sets of the art sheets so am making two the same of each image, one for Prima Rosa to sell and one for me to sell. I took some cards in there yesterday and wait to see how they will sell.

I used a couple of he MFT paper pads. MFT are some are some of my favourites as I love the colours and small patterns and they go so well with these coloured art sheets. I used one of the teenage girl sentiments and used MFT pierced banner and music dies.
