Pretty in purple

For my final effort I used the uncoloured image and printed it 3 times to create a layered effect. I coloured it with distress inks and mounted it onto Lelli-bot papers. I cut the flourish dies out of the same papers and stamped a sentiment onto vellum, finished off with gems from my stash.

Lelli-Bot Crafts, a lovely new company, have been running a digi challenge and the following are my attempts!!  If you haven't come across them before then check out their website and on Facebook, you are missing a treat.

 

 I wanted to create a muted and soft image. I used the uncoloured digi and painted it with distress inks, matted and layered onto mirri card and mounted onto embossed card stock coloured with the same distress inks. Finished off with a ribbon from my stash and Lelli-bot buttons.

Don't faint, I've blogged!!

Ok I admit it, I am the most useless blogger ever!!!  I really do mean to get on here more often but my excuse is my laptop is in my craft room and I get distracted by all my stash!!

 

Anyway, here goes.

 

I have been a busy little bee whilst I've not been on here.  Lately with some wonderful goodies from Lelli-Bot Crafts.  You simply have to visit them.  There is such a variety of kits to suit all tastes and budgets.

 

This is my first card I made using the Radiant Butterflies kit.  I was a bit nervous sharing it with them on Fb, because the standard to cards etc is so high, but I needn't have worried.  Everyone said lovely things about it and then today I find I have won 'Make of the week' :-)  I am one very happy crafter.

 

One of the options of the kits is the full works, which is the one I chose and it includes oodles of papers, card stock and masses of lovely embellishments.  All I had to add was glue and gems!!

 

Anyway I am going to stop now and I promise faithfully I will try to blog soon!!
