Wishing (you) Well

Hi folks

Couldn't wait to use this fabulous new Wishing Well Die set from Marianne Designs - new this month!  Little Tilli  Gnome from Mo's Digital Pencil looks suitably dreamy with her thoughts far away as she sits next to it looking at the tree blossom!  Before adding the die cut branch I inked through the new blossom stencil just to create a bit of extra depth.  Full list of Marianne products used below.

Nearly the weekend folks - I've been proper poorly this week, not sure if it's been a delayed reaction to my first Covid jab.  Felt fine for the first week, then second week - euggh!  But, I feel so blessed to have been given the vaccine.

It has meant I've had a lazy week so not all bad!!

Hugs, Juliexx

Lili of The Valley Baby with Bunny

I made this for a lockdown baby who was born a couple of weeks ago to my dear friend, Granny Sally!!   And I hear mum and baby are doing well- it must be so difficult during these strange times.  

The image is Lili of theValley and the Crib is a Marianne Die.  Love these Bella and Boo papers too.

Babygro Washing and Babygro - Memory Box

Baby word and stamp - Papertrey Ink

Papers - Bella and Boo

Happy Wednesday or hump day as it's often called here in the UK!

New Baby, New Grandma

I chose a LOTV image for this card for a special friend who has just become a Nanny for the first time - and left it quite clean and simple too! I do love the way he is peeking round the side of his buggy!

The papers are first edition and the sentiment comes from a great set of stamps for babies from Marianne Design - EC0170, picture below.

And then I just finished it off with a bit of doodling and the tag which came with the paper pad.

Thanks for popping by!

Little Match Girl - red version

Just realised I hadn't posted this card using Mo's Match Girl, this time coloured in red. I just love her!

The layout is fairly similar to the green version that I posted here before Christmas. This time I've used the free-standing candles from Marianne Designs rather than the candle bridge, details below

Double Stitched Oval Die  - CR1467

Candle Die set - CR1425

Have a great weekend whatever you're up to.

Mo's Tot with Presents

I do love this little cutie from Mo's Digital Pencil - Tot with Presents.   And you get the sentiment too!

I've kept it fairly simple with just a Poinsettia Die from Marianne Designs - CR1478 - and a sledge which I think is from Joy crafts.

Busy day today, getting ready for our Em's homecoming tomorrow - - it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!!

Hugs, Juliexx

Marianne Winter Gnome

I'm in a gnome loving mood this Christmas and this is another of the Marianne Gnomes and my card for the Marianne Inspiration blog, here, last week.  I used this gorgeous new border die from Marianne and made a frame with four die cuts - also love red and white for Christmas and I love how the frame turned out.

Sequins, Gems or Pearls anyone?

Our new challenge starts today over at Passion For Promarkers HQ and our lovely Shelly has chosen this lovely, easy theme of Sequins, Gems and/or Pearls.

I've used this gorgeous Oak Fairy image from Mo's Digital Pencil  and a few sequins have finished it off nicely!

I've made the background papers with a stunning skeleton leaf stamp which is new from Marianne Designs - stamped and embossed and then I've added my inks to highlight the lovely veins of the leaves!  The oak leaf die cuts are also new from Marianne Designs as is the circle web die framing the image.  Details below:

Skeleton Leaf Stamp - TC8077 - NEW!

Leaf Die set of 4 - LR0621- NEW!

Web edged Circle Die set - LR0430

The sentiment is from Paper Trey Ink and that has been cut out with a couple of Stampin Up punches.

Our sponsors this week are the fabulous LeAnn's World 101 and they are offering the lucky winner two images of their choice!

Hope you can come and join us for the challenge here!

Rapunzel (Go Away) from Mo's Digital Pencil

 

I've been very quiet on social media recently  - just not had enough time or energy, what with my Dad and Daughter visiting and I've been suffering from a yucky throat infection which seems to have struck a lot of people down.  

Back on it today though, sharing this fab new image from Mo's Digital Pencil - Rapunzel (Go Away).  Just love it!

Lots of Marianne products used here, old and new items, mainly the balustrade which was released last month- full list below.

Balustrade - LR0611

Bricks from Arch Window die set - CR1389

Ivy and Bird - LR0206

Papers - Weathered Wood - PK9155

- Birds and Flowers - PK9085

And I think the sentiment might be PTI but borrowed from a friend a long time ago and can't be sure!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

This is not just a Christmas Elf it's a Mo's Digital Pencil Christmas Elf!

Right?  Isn't that so true - no-one quite does an elf like Mo!!  (A little play on a TV advert for non-UK visitors!)

This is Little Elf Kippa - I just love the cheeky sideways look from Kippa - so clever!  You can find this  little cutie here in Mo's Store.

The large Bauble die is from Marianne Designs (last Christmas I think - LR0560), the bells too (COL1363) and the tag (CR1353).

Hugs, Juliexx

Mo Carry the Cake

Have you seen this new little lovely from Mo's Digital Pencil?  She's called Carry The Cake and what a great sentiment that is - comes with the image!.

Mo's Gathering Kindling

It's still Christmas in July over  on the Digital Pencil Too challenge blog  so I thought I'd share another Christmas card made with Gathering Kindle from Mo's Digital Pencil - love this little lady!

I printed the image quite large so with these beautiful papers from KaiserCraft I don't think she needed a whole lot else,

Marianne Frame - CR1438

Papers - Kaisercraft - Just Believe

Think that's three Christmas Cards I've made now this year!  Go Me!

Have a great weekend.
