Having been on a trip to Peru recently I just couldn't resist this cute Alpaca Stamp and Cuts Set, you get a stamp set and all the dies to go with it in these sets, very good value for money, a bargain at $14.99!!! 

As you can see I brought a Llama and an Alpaca home with me, I just wish it could have been the real thing, they were so cute!!! 

I used Doll Pink Card Stock, bright and cheerful colour don't you think  and coloured the alpaca in bright colours. For the background I used some paper from a Lawn Fawn Really Rainbow Pack, I thought the colours were perfect to give the impression of a desert! I added some lovely Rainbow Sparkles Jewels in the shaker and added a few Ruby Slippers Glitter Drops onto the Alpacca's trim  

and I finished the inside. I have to say I really love how this has turned out, very cute don't you think! :-) 

So now it's YOUR turn to get out your bright and cheerful supplies and join in!

Simon Says Stamp 'Good Vibes' Release!

Good morning all :-) I hope all of these good vibes are reaching you!! ;-)

Simon Says Stamp's latest 'Good Vibes' Release has hit the store and is now available!!! YAY!! 

I received a pack of samples to use and I have to tell you, they are FAB-UL-OUS!! I made a couple of cards to share today!

My first card is a shaker made using a gorgeous Hibiscus Frame Die.

 I have 7 cats at home + 3 who live outside so when we go away on vacation my neighbour takes care of them. I thought this card would come in handy for the next time we're away! 

I die cut the panel and then masked the surrounding area before blending Worn Lipstick and Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxide Inks over the top, I then spritzed with water. I filled the shaker with a mix of pretty sequins and I added a few drops of Nuvo Yellow Bird Glitter Drops on the stamen, lovely sparkle ;-)

I finished with a heat embossed sentiment from a new Vacation Time Stamp Set and a white twine wrap and bow. 

Next up is this card made using a Debra and Big Friend Craft Dies for a fabulous friend! 

I used the same Worn Lipstick and Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxide Inks for the background, spritzed and splattered with water and then adhered the die cut over the top. I used some of Simon's gorgeous Copper Glitter Card to pop in a few of the holes. I blended the inks over the 'friend' and backed it with black to make it 'pop', I love that this die has a thicker background one to go with t! 

Please CLICK HERE or  on the pic to go to see the whole release! I do receive a small commission on sales which I donate to animal charities. 

Every Little helps, thank you XX
