Lili Of The Valley - Love Gnomes #2

 Evening Everyone

I'm back again to share the last of my cards using the Lili Of The Valley new releases. Once again I used one of the cute 'Love Gnomes'; I love this set as they're so easy to colour up and cut out. For today's card I decide to use lilac as my main colour, as I think it really suits him. :) I used Copic pens to colour with. I hope you like it. 

 

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

Here's What I Did & Used

First, I covered the front of a 6" x 6" card front with some pretty ombre paper, leaving  slim border around the edge. Next, I die cut a scalloped square frame from white card 4 x times then glued and stacked them up. The frame was glued into the centre of the card front. 

I created a ' Happy Anniversary' sentiment and printed it onto white card using my laser printer, then added purple foil over the top using my Minc foiling machine. The sentiment topper was then die cut into a inverted square using the same scalloped frame die as before. Lilac ink was applied to the bottom left hand corner; when the ink was dry the topper was glued inside the frame. 

The adorable love gnome was stamped onto colouring card, coloured with Copic pens, and then fussy cut out. White dots were added to the heart the gnome is holding, then glued inside the frame. To finish the card off, I added a purple glitter die cut hearts, a few pearls and a little glitter to the bow.

Lili Of The Valley - Love Gnomes #1

Afternoon Everyone

Today I'm sharing a card using another of the Lili Of The Valley new release polymer stamps, this time from the fabulous 'Love Gnomes' set. These little guy's are sooo cute, and so easy to colour up. For my little pink love bug today I used Copic pens which I then fussy cut out. I hope you like it. 

 

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

Here's What I Did & Used

First, I die cut a scalloped square frame from pearly pink then glued a white square mat of card on top. The topper was added flat to the centre of the card front.  

Next, I die cut lots of different strips of pink, white and glitter card in varying widths, then adhered them to a piece of thin card in a pattern. The finished striped card was die cut into a scalloped heart and added to the front of the frame. 

The cute love gnome was stamped onto colouring card, coloured with Copic pens, and then fussy cut out. White dots were added to the heart the gnome is holding. Foam was added to the back of the gnome to give him dimension, and glued to the front of the heart. A die cut sentiment was added to the bottom right of the card front. To finish the card, I added a few pearls around the gnome.

Lili Of The Valley - Sweet Bears #2

Evening everyone

I have a few more Lili Of The Valley cards to share with you this week, again I'm highlighting the release of the new Bear and Gnome polymer stamps. For today's card I used one of the 'Sweet Bears' stamps and a sentiment from the 'Love Definitions' set. I used distress Reinkers and pencils to colour with. I hope you like it. 

 

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

Here's What I Did & Used

I covered the front of a 5" x 7"white top fold card blank with a piece of blue paper.  Next, the bear couple, flowers and the sentiment were stamped onto watercolouring card to create a little scene. I drew a curved line across the bottom section to create a hillside. The bear couple and flowers were stamped again onto masking paper, fussy cut out and placed over their corresponding image. Using a cloud stencil, blue ink was apply to create a background sky. When the sky was dry, a thin layer of green paint was added to the bottom section of the scene to create the grass. The masks were then removed. The finished scene was die cut into a rectangle. 

The images were coloured with distress ink making sure they were kept them bright and colourful. The grass was created by adding lots of flicks using green colouring pencils in varying shades. The completed scene was attached to a larger white rectangle piece of card, and funky foam was added to the back. The completed topper was mounted onto the card front. 

A sentiment from the set was stamped onto a die cut heart, and a little watercolour ink was added around the edge. To finish the card, the heart was added to the card front with foam pads.

The images were coloured with distress ink making sure they were kept them light and pretty. The grass was created by adding lots of flicks of green ink in varying colour and thickness to it.

Lili Of The Valley - Sweet Bears

 Happy New Year Everyone

I hope you all had a fabulous Christmas and New Year. Mine was a quiet one with my hubbie, but it was very relaxing with a little crafting in the mix. Here's to a healthy, happy and fulfilling 2023. I have plans this year to be more creative and do thing for 'me', I'm planning to get back into drawing, painting and sewing which I really miss, as well my usual crafting. I hope you have some plans to spend more 'me' time too. 

Anyhow, onto today's post. Today I'm sharing the first of my Lili Of The Valley cards using one of the new polymer stamps which launch in their etsy store today (1/1/23). The new collections include The new sets include 'Sweet Bears', 'Bear Hug Tags', 'Cupid Tags', 'Love Sentiment Tags', 'Heart Mini Image Icon Tags', 'Mason Jars', 'Love Definitions' and 'Love Gnomes'. You're going to love them, they're are really cute. They could be used for birthday, anniversary, Valentines or simply to say 'I love you'. For my card today I used one of the 'Sweet Bear' and the balloons stamps in the set and teamed it with an old sentiment stamp. I thought he looked like he could be floating so I made a cloud scene. I hope you like it. 

 

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

Here's What I Did & Used

I covered the front of a 5" x 7" top fold card with a piece of thin blue card. The sweet little bear and the balloons were stamped out, coloured with Copic pens, and then fussy cut out. 

To create the background - a piece of blue patterned paper was inked up with 2 blue distress inks to create a cloudy sky, then die cut into a rectangle. A sentiment was printed onto a piece of white card and die cut into a rectangle (same die as before). The sentiment end was die cut again using a cloud border die. The opposite end of the rectangle was also cut with the cloud border die but this time slightly larger. Both clouds were layered up at the bottom of the blue sky paper along with 2 smaller clouds cut from white card - the over hangs were then trimmed off.  

The completed scene was attached to a white scalloped rectangle frame and mounted flat onto the card front. The balloons and cut out bear were attached with Bakers Twine and glued to the card front floating in the clouds. To finish the card, I added a glitter to the white hearts and a few gems etc near the sentiment.
