Afternoon Tea Marci sending love

Did you see the colouring video I did last week? With the sparkly dress? It was with this Afternoon Tea Marci. If you’d like to see the video, then you can go here for the blog post, or here for the video on YouTube.

So yeah, this is what I decided to use the image for! A clean and simple card! About two weeks ago I finally found the embossing folders I’d misplaced when I last moved so of course I had try to them out again. It is a bit hard to see the embossed part in the white, though, I know. I’ve used both die cuts are also from La-La Land Crafts.

I’ve made another tutorial for you all. I’ve coloured up La-La Land Crafts Afternoon Tea Marci wearing a sparkly dress. The entire image is coloured in with no-lines technique and in this video I will show you how I coloured up the dress, shoes and  hairband, and flowers.

LLLC: Thank you

Today I have used this super cute Thinking of You Marci to make a Thank You card. I decided to go with bright cheerful colours, in a fun colour combination.

The papers are primarily by Maja Design and Bazzill, the flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts. All the die cuts are from La-La Land Crafts. I just love how easy they are to cut out!

Faythe’s Cherry Flowers

Recently Tiddly Inks was out with a new image. It’s called Faythe’s Cherry Flowers. Of course I had to get it and use it as I think it is really sweet. I quite like the character Faythe and her awesome hair.

If you’d like to see how I’ve coloured up this image, you can see it here. Yes, I’ve made a video of me colouring her up! I hope you enjoy it! I’ll make a seperate post about it tomorrow.

I’ve used various papers from Maja Design along with some La-La Land Crafts dies and a Make It Crafty chipboard which I coloured with both matching colours and the white dots of the dress.

LLLC: Mother’s Day

Friday is now my new designated La-La Land Crafts day. The theme of the week is Mother’s Day. Here we had our Mother’s Day back in February.

I’ve once again coloured up one of their stamps with the no-lines technique. For some reason I seem to prefer colouring their stamps that way. Who knew I’d ever warm up to that feeling! It’s a cool challenge, though, and I’m getting more and more confident with it. I added a little bit of texture to her skirt so it has a bit of a denim feel to it. You can find a link to the stamp and the list of colours below.

I’ve used some Maja Design paper to go with the background stamp from LLLC which I did in a matching purple ink. Isn’t it pretty?! I absolutely love it! The various dies are listed at the bottom of the post. The butterflies are just so pretty and I love that heart die! As I didn’t really have a fitting sentiment I could emboss onto the dark blue background, I simply just wrote it myself! That works, too, right?! The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and Live and Love Crafts.
