The Paper Nest Dolls GDT - Birthday Emma!

Good Morning Folks!  I am so honoured today to have been asked to guest design for The Paper Nest Dolls.
For my card I have used the adorable Birthday Emma which can be found in store here.   The dps I have used are by Papermania and I've backed them onto coredinations cardstock and used a MS punch around the page.  The banner and corner feature are La-La Land dies, the ribbon is from my stash and the flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.
I have coloured the image in with Copics and added some frantage for bling.  Thanks so much for stopping by.  Lotsa luv, hugs xxxx

The Paper Shelter DT - Anything but a card!

Good Morning!!  Hope you're all having a lovely week so far.  Today's card is for The Paper Shelter and this week our challenge is "Anything but a card" so I decided to alter a note book for a change.
I have used the gorgeous "Follow me on Fairybook".  As I have been suffering with a blasted headache for the past week it was great that I was able to just print out this pre-coloured image and backing paper.  All I did was add some lace, gems and butterflies from my stash and cut out the pennant with a La La Land die and the swirl with a Magnolia doohickey die.
Here is a close up of the sweetest little fairy to which I've added some frantage and a little distress ink around the edges.
This is the inside cover of the book using papers from the "Shopping Girl" paper pack and a doohickey Tag.  Thanks for stopping by.  I do hope you'll join in with the challenge this week over at The Paper Shelter.  Lotsa luv, hugs xxxx
