Noor Design and Passionate Paper Creations Blog Hop

Welcome to the Noor Design UK''s First Blog Hop.  We are joined by the girls from Passionate Paper Creations so there will be lots of inspiration and ideas on how to use the LDRS Creative Basic dies along with products from the Noor Design UK Shop.

Here's my card using the Dutch Swing Card Art Romance:
This stencil was a joy to play with. I love the shape and the ease of the use of the stencil. The layers looks gorgeous together. I used several of the LDRS Creative Basics Dies: Background Builders 1, Cutting Edge Borders 1, Basic Stitched Flags, Basic Pierced Ovals. I also used the LDRS Gilded Oval Die Set to add the flourish details on the ovals. I added some wood veneers, flat back pearls and various flowers from my stash.

You're A Delight

 Happy Wednesday everyone! It's time for a new project for the 7 Kids Challenge Blog, "Anything Goes".  Make sure you use a STAMP/IMAGE carried in the 7 Kids College Fund Store in order to qualify.  

Here's a CAS card using Avery Elle - Stay Fresh and coordinating dies. I stamped the pineapple twice, colored it with Copic Markers and fussy cut it out. I stamped the sentiment "you're a delight" on vellum and placed it on top of the images. The sentiment is from the stamp set. I matted the white cs with designer paper from Lawn Fawn - Perfectly Plaid 6x6 Paper Pad. For the final embellishment I added some yellow enamel dots.

Wishing You A Magical Day

Happy April Weekend everyone! Here's  my card using Avery Elle - Be A Unicorn and coordinating dies. Ummm, because everyone wants to be a unicorn, right? Well it would be awesome.

I used the Lawn Fawn - Puffy Cloud die on the bottom of the card. I used the negative to create a stencil for the background clouds, using a light chalk ink. The sentiment "wishing you a magical day" is from the Be A Unicorn set, as well as the tiny stars. The unicorn, rainbow and cloud base are all place on dimensional pop dots. The images are colored with Copic Markers and glittered up with Star Dust Stickles.

Go On and Celebrate

 Happy Wednesday everyone! It's time for a new project for the 7 Kids Challenge Blog, "Anything Goes".  Make sure you use a STAMP/IMAGE carried in the 7 Kids College Fund Store in order to qualify.  

Easter is this Sunday and I wanted to make another card for the upcoming occasion. I wanted to use some new sequins in my stash, so I created a shaker card. The image is from C.C. Designs Roberto's Rascals Easter Funnies. This bunny is adorable. He is colored with Copic Markers, Wink of Stella in Clear and I added some Star Dust Stickles. The inside sentiment is from Mama Elephant Make A Wish stamp set. I think I can use this also as a birthday/Easter card. I used my new Mini MISTI stamping tool and I love it! The sentiment did not stamp opaque the first try, but after multiple layers of inking, using the Mini MISTI, perfection! To finish my card, I added some flowers on the bottom right corner of the shaker.
