Squiggles All loved up challenge reminder

Wow we have had a lot of lovely entries so far for our current challenge ' all loved up ' and I have made another card for a bit of extra inspiration for you all.

Don't forget if you use a squiggles image then you get an extra entry to the draw and we do so love to see them used.

The Squiggles Store has some great offers including love birds on a special at just 99p. If you have a really good looky about the store you may discover some freebies too!

I have used this most adorable fairy, who of course is bringing love in her large gift. She is available here and is called fairy gifts.

Coloured with promarkers, used a small round sentiment then stamped the 'with love' onto it. Used an embossed card and some die cuts from DCWV. The beads and cord are from my stash and yes it was a creation that I started then decided I didn't like the colours, Go figure. But I then made this card and thought that it went rather well with it. So a few alterations here and there and suddenly this all fell together. The wee butterfly I found alone and very sad, stuck to the underside of one of my embelly boxes??!

Sorry about the squiffy picture, must be something about the 7 year old who was jumping up and down beside me saying ' can I do that mummy, can I use the camera mummy '. Just gotta love that stage, bet he won't be using the 'mummy' word much longer :-(

Close up of the image.

Isn't she cute!

Some Sunshine Inspiration

This lovely little box has been made using some DCWV card/paper, some gorgeous silk and mulberry flowers. A brad to fix them on the top and then another brad on the side to act as a hook for the beads that I used to make the loop fixture.

The sun was shining brilliantly when I made this box (seems ages ago, but was only two days actually) and the big yellow flower seemed appropriate.

Try it on Tuesday - which has a sunshine theme this week

Bracelet Bling and an altered note pad

Well this is a little creation to send to one of my goddaughters later on this year. She doesn't like too much fuss, so I am hoping this simply decorated pad and the bracelet will suffice.

I have used a freebie stamp that is from my very old (over 5yrs) stash. Inked up with versamark, brilliance and pretty colour ink pads, then used my I Kan Dee pearlescent chalks on the versamark. I attached a piece of gold creative ribbon from Dovecraft, and threaded it through the toggle loop on the bracelet.

Pretty purses, with flower charm

I have made this card purse using a template and a piece of card 6" x 12". I have added some die cut flowers, some punched out flowers and some bling. The charm I made from a tibetan silver flower charm and two marble beads. This is the first time that I have used this template so it came out quite well I think.

A pretty jewellery offering just for a change.

Wonderland love wishes

This is just a quick post to show you the card I made for one of my daughters, Tishy. I used Alice in wonderland, who is actually called Miss Evie Wonderland from Squiggle stamps. I found a wee hairclip with a white rabbit on it and also made a wee charm for her. I have coloured her in with my promarkers and have hi-lighted with a white pen. I followed a sketch and made my own flowers. The sentiment is perfect cos she always makes me smile, and obviously I had to add some bling and some hearts to let her know how much I love her. Of course now I do have to make three more so there is no outbreak of fighting in the ranks, he ho.
