More Idyllic-ness!

Here are the last three cards for my Simply Cards and Papercraft commission using Nitwits Idyllic digital scrapbooking kit.

These cards have lots of decoupage layers, I love adding decoupage to my cards, but sometimes I don't know when to stop! 

On this card the hat is made up of about 5 layers of decoupage and the flower about 7, see I told you I don't know when to stop LOL!.

For this card I used the three label tags from the Lil'Bits elements kit, and re-sized them so that each one was smaller than the one before I turned them on their sides and layered them up with foam pads. The stopper and butterfly are both made up of two layers and the bow which is also from the kit is made up of three layers.

Lots of cutting out on this one, after gluing the border papers to each end I cut around them to give shaped edges, then decoupaged up the window box, flowers and butterfly.

All the ribbons, gems and pearls are from Meiflower.

Thanks for dropping by to take a look,

take care,

Simply cards and papercraft magazine

I have some cards in the latest issue of Simply Cards and Papercraft, using the fabulous Nitwits Idyllic collection, I thoroughly enjoyed making the cards for this commission as digital is my first love! 

I am also a bit of a decoupage-aholic so about half of the six cards I made have lots of layers, the others just have some layers, today I will show you the ones with the least amount of cutting out.

I have used lots of Meiflower products on my card, including ribbons, buttons, stick on gems and stick on pearls.

Snow and sparkle

I was commissioned to make some cards for the latest issue of Die Cutting Essentials using some Hobbycraft Intricut dies, which consisted of a Snow Globe a Snowflake doily and Snowflakes, I used quite a few Meiflower stick on gems for the centres of the snowflakes and decoration, I also used a couple of ribbons and a diamante buckle.

I used mainly Aurora Borealis gems from the multi size pack, but there are also some pink and blue ones in there as well as pink pearls.

If designed the papers myself and the magazine are giving them away as a free download, if you like the look of them you can nab them HERE.

Thanks for dropping in,

take care,
