Mice Party - Summit to Celebrate - Let's Celebrate - with Lili of the Valley LOTV

Hello everyone wishing you all a lovely Wednesday - I hope that you are having a lovely weekend and the weather is being kind where you are....we're currently having a few slightly cooler days which is lovely only 37C today LOL....and there is even a possibility of a few drops of rain for Thursday and Friday....I wish....

Everyone seems to have gone Eclipse crazy...trying to buy glasses last minute to be able to watch the event tonight!

It's going to be a total eclipse over Mallorca tonight and we had wanted to go and stay for a few days to see but it's crazy. the hotels were charging sooo much and inviting on a weeks stay.  So were gong to go up on to the house roof to watch.

We're only expecting a partial eclipse of about 95.8% here where we live with the event starting at 7:42 pm, maximum eclipse at 8:38pm ending at 9:09pm. Then the sundial set at 9:13....so I think it's going to be pretty special to see.

  

I'm back today with another cute card using one of the super cute digital stamps from the Mice Party Spring release by Lili of the Valley (LOTV) available from the Etsy shop. The collection includes 12 sweet  little mice, all ready to celebrate.

My fun and colourful card features the Summit to Celebrate Mouse image, coloured with my promarkers and I have added lots of lovely sparkle to make my card extra special.

I adhered a layer of co-ordinating striped paper from my stash to the 5" x 7" card base, covering it completely and then used a wavy stitched border die to cut out the mouse panel layering this onto the card base.

Finishing touches of white gel pen highlights, sparkly confetti and clear sparkle on the cake and a little drop of glossy accents to the mouses nose.

I hope that you like my card today and you'll enjoy the next cards I share from Lili of the Valley (LOTV)






Hasta luego 👋

Enjoy the rest of your day !

Cute Creatures - Sending Paper Hugs - Peacock - Set 1 with Lili of the Valley LOTV

Hello everyone happy Friday - The last day of July is here and I hope you have had a great month.

I'm off to my very relaxing yoga class this morning and then we are going to Granada for the day, shopping, eating and to watch the new Spiderman film and cool off a little LOL.

I'm back today to share another cute and fun A6 card using another of the very cute creatures from the Cute Creatures collection by Lili of the Valley (LOTV). Both sets are available now from the Etsy shop

If you haven't had a look, it's a fantastic collection of 2 sets of images, that you can buy separately or as a complete collection - I know which I would choose as its a fantastic price for what's included. Each set contains 93 cute little creatures or you can get all 186 creatures.

Today for my fun and colourful card I have used the gorgeous little peacock from set 1.  

I resized the little peacock for a landscape A6 card printing out and colouring with my promarkers before fussy cutting out.

Next I created an embossed background panel.  Ive had the peacock feather embossing folder in my stash for many many years LOL so cut a panel of white card and then inked the raised feathers with distress oxide ink before running through my cutting machine.  I wanted to add a little more colour so added more green ink and passed the folder through the machine a second time.  Next I used a deep blue acrylic paint and my brayer to add the dark paint over the panel, carefully applying a thin layer and building up the coverage slowly so not to fill the green feathers with pain. I love the matt texture this gives to the card.

I created a split panel landscape card, cutting the front panel of the card adding the embossed panel to the top with a strip of acetate in the middle.

The sentiment sticker was added to the acetate, so it appears to flow and the coloured peacock was adhered across the two panels.

To finish off the card I have added gold confetti, white a metallic gold gel pen and clear sparkle pen.

I hope that you like my card today and you'll enjoy the next cards I share from Lili of the Valley (LOTV)


Hasta luego 👋

Enjoy the rest of your day !

Cute Creatures - Hi There - Set 1 with Lili of the Valley LOTV

Hello everyone happy Friday - I hope you have had a great week....Im off to may very relaxing yoga class this morning - just what I need after a very hot week, then tonight we are going walking down on the coast with our local walking group....bound to be loads of fun and extremely noisy LOL.

I'm back today to share another cute and fun A6 card using another of the very cute creatures from the Cute Creatures collection by Lili of the Valley (LOTV). Both sets are available now from the Etsy shop

 

If you haven't had a look, it's a fantastic collection of 2 sets of images, that you can buy separately or as a complete collection - I know which I would choose as its a fantastic price for what's included. Each set contains 93 cute little creatures or you can get all 186 creatures.

Today for my fun and colourful card I have used the very sweet little dragonfly from set 1 today.  I wanted to have a play for this card so decided to colour the little dragonfly using some fluorescent gel pens that I have had in my crafty stash for a while.  I wanted to create a fun burst of colour as I think that dragonflies are just magical and their colours are amazing. I used grey promarkers to colour his head and a silver metallic pen for the body and antennae.

We have a few different types here where we live and we often see them swooping around the pool , catching the little flying insects then dropping to the pool and skimming along the water.  I also love these little insects as I love the Spanish word for dragonfly...it's libélula and it's such a happy magical word!

To create the colourful rainbow background I have blended distress inks through a paint splatter stencil using a rainbow of colour. 

The card was finished off with white gelly pen accents, extra clear sparkle to the dragonfly wings and clear sparkly sequins around the design.

Hopefully my fun colourful card today

I hope that you like my card today and you'll enjoy the next cards I share from Lili of the Valley (LOTV)

Cute Creatures - Float through life on a wave of happiness - Set 1 with Lili of the Valley LOTV

Hello everyone happy Friday - I hope you have had a great week.

The very high temperatures are sticking around here and all across Europe at the moment, ranging from 36 to 40C most days locally...manageable for a few hours in the mornings but then by lunch everything has to stop and then its all about finding something to do out of the heat.

There have been loads of wild fires around the town already and they are breaking out every day in Andalusian region - very sad and very scary !

Stay safe everyone!

I'm back today to share a cute and fun A6 underwater card using another of the little sea creatures from the Cute Creatures collection by Lili of the Valley (LOTV). Both sets are available now from the Etsy shop, there's also currently a fabulous 50% discount with eligible orders.

I have used to sweet looking jelly fish from set 1 today, coloured in my favourite palette after printing out onto alcohol friendly card and cutting out on my ScanNCut.

This critter is definitely a lot cuter than the Mauve Stinger that stung me last year whilst snorkelling LOL

To create the  underwater background I have blended distress inks across a panel of card before using a wave stencil to dry emboss this, blending a darker ink over the raised areas.

I adhered strips of watery looking paper at then sides of the embossed panel and then added a stamped sentiment at the bottom of the card, finishing it off with white gelly pen accents and sparkly gems.

Hopefully my fun underwater card will make you feel a little cooler today

Cute Creatures - Make a Splash - Set 2 with Lili of the Valley LOTV

Hello everyone happy Sunday - I hope you are having a lovely weekend.

Last night we went on an adventure, a night walk.... we went walking with one of the local groups to explore The Sierra de Lújar mine  which is an active underground operation located in the mountains above Órgiva. The mine, Minera de Órgiva, S.L., it is one of the few sustainable fluorite mines in Europe, extracting high-quality fluorspar and the operation is known for its environmental practices, such as recycling 90% of its water and backfilling waste into old tunnels.

The mine is located in the mountains opposite are house and we can often see dust clouds as vehicles make their slow way up and down.

My goodness it definitely was an adventure...the group met just down the road at the Camping restaurant around 7pm and we set off in a couple of mini busses and a few 4x4 vehicles too.  It took around an hour to get to the mine entrance high up in the clouds as the track was very bumpy, and dusty and out poor minibus really struggle...the driver was amazing and we only had to get out once while the engine cooled a little and he manoeuvred over a difficult stretch of track.  

The views from the top were spectacular so it was well worth me having my eyes closed most of the journey up LOL. It was a really strange experience walking in the dark with torches and quite strenuous in places but Im so glad we went, despite getting home at midnight and being shattered.....we decided to skip the food after the walk as we were so tired. There are loads of photos on my Facebook page if you are interested.

It's a lot cooler here today thankfully with temperatures due to reach 34C this afternoon but after the high heat we've had it's a welcome relief and there even a chance of light rain next week ..... yippee !

I'm back today to share a fun 5" x 7" underwater scene card using some of the little sea creatures from the Cute Creatures collection by Lili of the Valley (LOTV). Both sets are available now from the Etsy shop with a fabulous 50% discount

 

If you haven't had a look yet it's a fantastic collection of 2 sets of images, that you can buy separately or as a complete collection - I know which I would choose as its a fantastic price for what's included.  Each set contains 93 cute little creatures or you can get all 186 creatures.

I chose a hammerhead shark, a great white and the sweet little manta ray resizing them to suite my card before printing out onto alcohol friendly card and fussy cutting out.

Next I created my underwater background, using lots of distress oxide inks, blending to create rays of light and a bank of sand at the bottom...its was loads of fun !

I used a stencil from my stash to create the coral at the bottom of the card adding little white highlights.

I added a stamped sentiment in the top corner of the panel and  finished off the card with glossy accents bubbles and clear shimmer pen on the sharks and ray.

I hope that you like my card today and you'll enjoy the next cards I share from Lili of the Valley (LOTV)

All of the little critters in the collection are so easy to colour and you can really use your imagination with them...especially with the dinosaurs, after all whose going to know if the colours aren't correct LOL

Hello everyone happy Friday - I hope you have all had a lovely week and have  a lovely weekend planned.

My sweet card has been made using the little love bird from set 1.  I resized him and created a reversed copy as I wanted the two little birds to be facing each other.

All of these little images are so easy to colour and you can really use your imagination with them.

The two little birds were printed out onto alcohol friendly card and coloured with my promarkers before cutting out with my ScanNCut.

Next I created my background, using a cloud stencil and distress inks to create a magical sky to complete my rainbow of colours used.

I die cut a little branch and some leaves, adding distress ink to these for some shading.

The sentiment was cut out in a little cloud shape on my ScanNCut and I blended ink over this too.

Hello everyone happy Saturday - wishing you all a great weekend.  

We've had such a busy week with various appointments, trips to Granada and things to do around the house and garden so I'm feeling completely out of sink, not entirely sure what day it is really....LOL

It was so windy yesterday too, I got blown home from my yoga class and ended up with loads of dust and grit in my eyes, hoping for a less blustery day today.

My sweet little caterpillar card has been made using set 1 and I have to say they are so easy to colour and make really cute cards - I'm sure you'll love them and the hardest part is what to create with first.

I resized the caterpillar and then printed him out onto alcohol friendly card and colouring with with my promarkers before cutting out with my ScanNCut.

Next I created my background, I wanted the little caterpillar to be nestled in amongst the leaves but with a bite taken out so I used a stencil to create the leafy pattern and then die cut a shape out of the side of the panel.

New Release - Summer Fun - Launch Bundle Offer - Sea Life - with Lili of the Valley LOTV

Hello everyone wishing you all a lovely Sunday - I hope that you are having a great weekend.  I don't know about you but I'm definitely ready for some Summer sunshine maybe a trip or two to the beach and a little splashing around in the sea - its been a mixed Winter and Spring here so far which has been quite unusual.

I'm back today with a fun A7 (5" x 7") underwater scene card using some of the little Sea Life icons from the new Summer Fun collection.

Its a fantastic bundle of 3 sets of images - Summer Days, Sea Life and At the Beach by Lili of the Valley (LOTV). available now from the Etsy shop. 

There are loads of cute images to play with in the collection and they are so easy to colour and make really cute cards - I'm sure you'll love them and the whole bundle is still on offer. The sentiment I chose to use is from the Dragons and Unicorns set 

I printed out the sea creatures and the sentiment onto alcohol friendly card and coloured these with my promarkers before cutting out with my ScanNCut.

Next I created my sea and sand for the scene, using Brushos and watercolour card allowing this to try completely before assembling my card.

I matted the water and sand onto a panel of dark navy card as I love the contrast this gives.

Finishing touches were some little glossy accents bubbles and white gel pen highlights around the design.

The shimmer from the Pixie Powder is absolutely gorgeous and perfect for the water.

I hope that you like my cards today and you'll enjoy the next cards I share from Lili of the Valley (LOTV)

New Release - Peeping Animals - Peeping Cat & Peeping Dog - with Lili of the Valley LOTV

Hello everyone wishing you all a lovely Friday - I hope that you have had a great week and are looking forward to the weekend ahead.  Another busy week here and lunch out with friends yesterday to a lovely Sushi restaurant on the coast - ate far too much but that seems to be the norm LOL.

We are at the hospital tomorrow to see a consultant about JJs cough which he's had since November and then were taking some friends to Granada on Saturday for lunch at a wonderful vegetarian restaurant we like.  

The weather has been very mixed again with cloudy days and spots of rain but I'm not going to complain as it will be too hot soon.

I'm back today with two cuties using the new Peeping Animals collection by Lili of the Valley (LOTV). available now from the Etsy shop. There are 6 peeping animals to choose from and they are so easy to colour you'll love them.

Whichever animal you choose I'm sure you will find them very easy to colour and personalise as you like.  

Each animal stamp includes some coordinating sentiments 

Both cards today  are very simple, combining patterned papers from my stash on each.

For the Peeping Cat I have cut around the kitties paw and then adhered the entire panel with foam tape onto the card with a layer of pretty floral paper.  The Kitty has been coloured in grey with a blue wash as it will be a friends birthday card and they have two absolutely gorgeous Russian Blue cats.

For the Peeping Dog I cut the right side off the panel and added the patterned paper to the inside of the card.

Both are really quick to create and I'm sure both will be loved by their recipients.

Finishing touches were some little clay hearts for the cat and stamped hearts for the dog, white gel pen highlights and glossy accents to the dog's nose and cats eyes.

I hope that you like my cards today and you'll enjoy the next cards I share from Lili of the Valley (LOTV)

It actually feels like Summer has arrived here after our cold and wet Winter and cooler Spring....the temperatures during the day have changed and its even shorts weather now LOL

The pool is sparkling and looking very inviting but its a tad too cool for me still - I'm such a wuss but ill be in it soon I'm sure.  Its lovely sitting out in the evening and no mosquitoes spotted just yet fingers crossed we don't have a bad year.

My very clean and simple, one layer birthday card today features the Mouse Fanfare image, coloured with my promarkers....just look at all those sweet little hearts pouring out. 

I carefully blended a little distress ink over the panel for the sky and then added two sweet clay hearts to finish off the design.
