Please pop over to see what our lovely guest Jess and the DT have made,,, absolutely GORGEOUS creations!! 

 I used some gorgeous Prima Flirty Fleur Papers along with Coordinating Flowers and  Decorative Washi Tape.  



and the inside


and I made a coordinating envelope 



I also made a Wedding Photo album for a VERY special couple ❤️I have blocked off their faces so if they see this they won't know its for them 😜😂


I LOVE my We R Memory Keepers Cinch Book Binding Tool and am using it ALL the time!! If you haven't got one, then I have to tell ya, add one to your  Just Because/Birthday/Christmas list!!! It's perfect for making notebooks etc for family and friends ;-) 


I used a Dot Fade StencilAquamarine Mousse and Polished Jade Ink to add some extra interest to the background paper 
I die cut the photo and paper using a lovely Wonky Hearts Die and then fussy cut slightly larger hearts for layering. I popped a couple of beautiful Aqua Hearts and Sequins underneath the flowers to add a bit of sparkle. I sprayed the flowers with Sheer Sparkle  and used a hot glue gun to fix them in place. I used a computer sentiment, printed using my laser printer and then silver foiled


And I made a box to pop it in 





Thanks for looking! 

When this publishes I will be somewhere over THE POND en route to Simon HQ!!  So super excited to get to see Heidi and family, Stephanie and fiance, and all of my pals over there :-D YAY!!!
I will catch up with ya'll when I return home ;-)

Anything Goes 

We are showcasing  GINA K Designs Products this week. You don't have to use them to join in but if you have some we would love to see them used

This is Marlena's last week with us in the Designer Spotlight and we would like to say a huge thank you for all of your creations over the past month. It has been a real pleasure having you along with us :-)

Please pop by the challenge blog to see what our lovely guest, Marlena and the DT have made :-)

I used a PERFECT  Perfect Blend Clear Stamp Set (see what I did there! ;-)) and made a couple of uplifting cards. 


I love the sentiments and coffee themed images in this set, fabulous don't ya think!  I coloured with Copic Markers and added a little shading with Prismacolor Pencils. I gold heat embossed the sentiment and addes a few ink splatters.


For the background I used  FABULOUS Brutus Monroe Coffee Rings Foil Toner Sheets  and Gold Foil. I must say these look much better IRL, the effect of the foil is awesome!



and I finished the insides using a Tim Holtz Rings Cling Stamp and a Gold Pigment Ink Pad 




So now it's YOUR turn to make whatever takes your fancy!
