Pink, Brown, and Blue

Morning All;

Sandy here to bring you Tina's favourite colour.

She has more than one though, so today we'll see a card that incorporates three of her favourite colours; pink, brown, and blue!

The paper is from last year's Christmas collection by Maja Design; Vintage Frost Basics.

This year's Christmas collection is called A Gift For You.

It was released yesterday and I've placed an order both for the paper stacks and the entire 12x12 collection, so given that everything works out smoothly, I should have it in stock by the end of this week.
I will of course make an announcement when it's available for ordering.

Back to Tina's card; here's a close up of the cute Love Key.

Short and sweet as today is a busy day for me.
Thanks for stopping by.

Hugz from Tina & Sandy

Favourtie Colours

Morning Everyone,

Tracy here starting the week off again and this week the theme we are all following is "our favourite colour" so it will come as no surprise to you that I have chosen one of my favourite colour combos of blue, cream and white.

The image is from Inkido Vinrtage Angels sheet, love these and I have placed it into a Marianne Design Anja's circles die. The outer die was cut from the Pion Design Days of Winter Church 12 x 12 sheet. with layers behind from Pion Desing Days of Winter Birds.

I added some Snow flakes on the edges and covered with diamond dust, really sparkly. The Marianne Design lampost is decorated with cream flower spray, ivory baby rose buds and Kort and Godt Ruffle Roses. You can also see the Princes Grace lace peeking through the bottom, my absolute favourite lace at LLC.

I have used the same flowers as above on the left hand side but added a chrysanthemum, 30mm wild rose, star pin coming out at the top and a little vintage angel sitting at the bottom. You will also see that I stamped the text Carte Postale from the Stempleglede Postcard From Paris set.

An artsy view finishing off with the Marianne Design Bow at the bottom cut from the matching Pion papers a Vintage pearl centre attached to the middle.

Lastly and certainly not least, look at these cute little rustic bells attached to the tag at the top and tied with the natural hemp twine.

Hugs Tracy x
