Lili of the Valley Challenge

005a

Good Morning everyone, I cannot believe just how quickly time is going and it seemed to hit me by surprise that it is already Thursday, once again at Lili of the Valley Challenge we have a great challenge for you, this week it is another of Bevs fabulous sketches, and Paul and Siri from Wild Orchid Crafts have agreed to sponsor us with a lovely prize, thanks to you both xx.

005

It’s James the bear again this week, he is such a little cute  isn’t he, if you haven’t already got your new stamps from Lili of the Valley and you are anywhere near Manchester this weekend Lisa and Laila will both be at the Manchester show so do pop over and see them.

I have used papers from my stash drawer for this card, Punched and Glittered Martha Stewart Snowflakes, 10mm roses from Wild Orchid Crafts and Bling Swirls from Prima , the Label is a Nestie die and the sentiment stamp is from Whiff of Joy.  I have as usual used Copics and Prismas to colour James.

007 Copics Used:

James: E53, E51, E50

Hat and Cracker: BG15, Bg11, BG10, C03, C02, C00

 

I thought you might like to see a couple of cards I made Yesterday for the Lili of the Valley Stall at Manchester, I had to get them off in the Post pretty quick, for them to arrive today.

As the Little Boy is named after Owen I thought I ought to use the proper school uniform colours didn’t realise how good they would look, I am really pleased with them.  The 2 cats that Owen is saying goodbye to are cut using a Doo Hickey Die by Magnolia.

Hugs
