Tina Wenke baby and Whiff of Joy Cherub cards

another couple to share this one didn't photograph as well for the colouring bits (the colouring is subtle in Twinkling H2O's but the shine quite a bit so looks a wee bit faint, but great in real life.


Instead of using the obvious lemon or yellow for this baby card I added a muted mustard colour with the palest grey and mint green to keep it all subtle and pastel.


the stamp is one of my baby ones from Tina Wenke / Stampavie and I keep going back to it time and again - the sign of a fabulous illustration!


The duck is an old freebie from a magazine and I think it could be the duck from the popcorn range not 100% sure, but he is cute all the same! think I have had that little duck since I started crafting and it was just begging to go with the stamped sentiment..

Last but not least, I was thrilled to bits to discover and quickly hipped along to the Whiff of Joy website, after previews of the new Elisabeth Bell stamps released in the last few weeks,. I love the cherubs and have two or three more uninked stamps in the range so look out for these, I intend to ink them very soon!


Coloured with twinkling H2O's again and will be back with some more.

Lily of the Valley Wedding card

Popping in to share a wedding card made with one of my favourite all time wedding stamps from Lily of the Valley which you can find here, teamed this with Darice embossing folder, go kreate dies and Magnolia leaf die cut.


I love the nestability tags used for the label but this was about the only one I managed to cut in ages without breaking the legs and even using release foam (yep tried parchment paper and all that and not a happy die sometimes!) grrr but it was worth it!


here is another view so you can see the window go create dies and the partial embossing using the Darice embossing folder. Oh and the sentiment is from just rite - I love using lots of different brands / products that complement each other!


I am entering this into Lili's Lil Fairies Antyhing Goes challenge, why not pop over and take part too its a good one to enter any LOTV card you have made!
