Peacock loveliness

Here today to share a sneek-peek card showcasing one of the FABULOUS new sets being released VERY SOON over at Clearly Besotted.  I know I say this every time but this release (IMHO) is the BEST ONE YET!  There’s feathers, phones, banners, sentiments galore, teacher stuff, man stuff, hearts and even a worm or two!!!  Steph is showing all of these new sets (and many co-ordinating dies) over on her blog RIGHT NOW!  If you leave her a comment you could even win some of them!

The set I have been DYING to ink up since Steph showed us a few weeks ago is Fancy Feathers.  Wait until you see it!  I absolutely love the stamps and sentiments in this set.  Here’s a card I made using the “build-a-peacock-feather” stamps!!
I couldn’t resist getting on the sequin bandwagon either!  As a girl who spent her formative years making costumes for our regular Rocky Horror Picture Show weekends I am not averse to the liberal scattering of sequins and glitter at any and every opportunity!!

Something to wake you up!!

Thought I’d quickly share this bright and cheery card before I whizz out to work!  The sun is actually shining here today (hallelujah) and the snow is beginning melt so maybe, just maybe winter is leaving!!!
I played with one of my new PTI sets Irresistably Ikat – love it!!  I also LOVE the Hero Arts Neon inks I just got too – they’re not for everyone, I know but I just ADORE them!!
The little butterfly is from the Butterfly Wishes die set and I stamped it with one one of the patterns from Building blocks (both from Clearly Besotted).

Hugs,

Choo choo…

I have been playing with more Clearly Besotted lovliness, this time using the Full Steam Ahead set (soon to be restocked!) and matching dies.  My lovely little nephew Alex  recently turned the BIG 5 so I made this card for him to wish him a happy birthday.

(Have A Great Birthday}

I am sooo looking forward to the next release coming from Steph!  If you’ve been by her blog you’ll have seen some of the wee sneak peeks she’s been sharing!!  I think April is set to be her busiest month yet and if you pop along you’ll see why!!

Hugs,
