Lili Of The Valley - Baby #2

Hi there

As promised, I'm back again with another Lili of the Valley card using one of the new digi stamps. For this card I have used 'Girl With Balloon' stamp. FYI, the image also includes one with a circle behind her and they are sent in PNG and JPG format. The sentiment is from the 'Simply Baby Greetings' set  and can be found in the shop. I used Copics to colour with. I hope you like it. x

For your information, here is the link to the LOTV Etsy Store to check out all the digi stampsand the LOTV online store to check out the rest of their goodies.


Here's What I Did
I covered the front of a 6" x 6" scalloped card blank with pretty pink paper, leaving a slim border around the edge. A pretty doily die cut circle was then glued flat into the centre of the card front. 

Using my graphics software I imported the gorgeous little girl image and a sentiment, then resized them both to fit my project. The image and sentiment were printed directly onto colouring cardstock and die cut with a circle die. The image was coloured in using Copic pens and the finished picture was mounted onto a pink scalloped circle. Funky foam was glued to the back of the circle and attached to the card front directly over the white doily. Glitter was added to the stars. To finish the card I added a few die cut baby embellishments and some pearls.

Here's What I Used
Digital Sentiment: Simple Baby Greetings

Copics: Skin - E11, E13, E25 / Balloon, Outfit & Socks - RV00, RV10, RV13, RV21 / Starts Y15, Y17 / Ground - W00, W01, W02, W03

Lili Of The Valley - Vintage Boy #2

Hi there

I'm back today with more Lili Of The Valley cuteness. To celebrate the launch of the 'Vintage Boy' collection I'm sharing another card this time a digi stamp which I coloured with Prismacolor pencils. I used the digi stamp 'Elbow Grease', a new digital paper and another of the sentiments from the 'Grunge Stamp' set. All the images are available as digi stamps and pre-coloured and sized versions in the Simply prints PDF's. The collection includes: Simply Prints, digi stamps, papers and sentiments, they all launch today (Monday 17th May) in the LOTV Etsy shop. All the links are below the photo section.

Here's What I Did
Firstly I printed off one of the gorgeous new digital papers from Lili Of The Valley directly onto to digital paper. The paper was trimmed down and added to the front of a 6" x 6" card blank leaving a slim border around the edge. 

Next, I imported the image and sentiment into my graphics program, then decided on my topper shape, in this case a square and created a dotty border in brown. The image and sentiment were resized to fit inside the square I created, everything was then printed onto toned tan paper. The image was coloured using  Prismacolour pencils. FYI, I did film my colouring process, and hope to create a video of it very soon, so watch this space. 

The completed image was backed onto thin card and die cut into a square, then added to a brown die cut scalloped square. Funky foam was glued to the back of the topper and added to the card front. To finish the card I added a few die cut cogs to the top and bottom of the card.

Lili Of the Valley - Vintage Boys #1

Hi everyone

How is everyone doing? Well I celebrated my 60th birthday since I last posted, and thanks to my daughter and husband I had an absolutely fabulous day - full of surprises, love and laughter. The day wasn't totally perfect as my daughter, who is still protecting herself at home couldn't share the day with us in person. FYI I haven't seen her in person for almost a year and a half due to the pandemic. Anyhow, but hopefully that will change very soon....fingers crossed. :)

Right that's the 'catch up' stuff done. Lol 

So today I'm sharing a sneaky peak of one of the new Lili Of The Valley vintage boys, they are all just so adorable. For my card I have used one of the Vintage Boy Simply Prints called 'Wallpaper Paste', one of the 'Dusky Watercolour' papers and a sentiment from the 'Grunge Stamp' set. All the new digi stamps are also available as pre-coloured versions in Simply prints PDF's. The whole collection - Simply Prints, digi stamps, papers and sentiments all launch in the LOTV Etsy shop on Monday (17th March).

I hope you like it. (This card is for sale - please email me).

For your information, here is the link to the LOTV Etsy Store to check out all the digi stampsand the LOTV online store to check out the rest of their goodies.


Here's What I Did
To start with I printed the Simply Print vintage boy image onto 300gsm white card and trimmed it down to fit my 5" x 7" black card blank whilst leaving a slim border around the edge. I used a fancy edge die on the bottom section, then glued funky foam onto the back. The digital paper was taken into my graphics program where I placed the sentiment over the top. The paper was printed straight onto smooth printer paper and trimmed it down to match the width of the card topper. The paper was glued to the card front first, and the topper piece was glued over the top of that. To finish the card I added a few glossy dots on both the top and bottom. 

Here's What I Used
Simply Print: Vintage Boy - Wallpaper Paste (also available as part of a set here)
The digi stamps of this image can be found here
Digital  Paper: Dusky Watercolour
Digital Sentiment: Grunge Stamps 
The Grunge Stamps & Typewriter Set can be found here

Other: 5" x 7" Black Card Blank, White 300gsm Card, Pro Print Paper, Fancy Edge Dies (Crealies), Funky Foam, Glue, Double Sided Tape, Blue & Brown Enamel Dots
