Special 18th ...


I have a special pop up box card to share today, this time around an 18th celebration
and the brief was simply 'Girly'.  I didn't want to go bright pink & black which is the norm for
an older girl so I have chosen pink, cream & navy and I am really pleased with the elegance.

Plenty of matting and layering, cake, 18 today, presents, flowersballoons & more balloons.
Some pretty pearls, cream satin ribbon, you can just about see the lovely heart charm too.
Cut on my Silhouette.  Matching box to complete the memories that this special day will bring.

The papers are from NITWIT COLLECTIONS

MERRY ...

everything AND A HAPPY always

Today I have a Stamping Bella image to share, I treated myself with several others
which will no doubt be making a appearance sometime soon here on my blog.

This one is titled 'Merry Everything' and seeing as it is a snow globe I have made a shaker
card with it, couldn't resist.  The sentiment is included & heat embossed in Silver.
If you look carefully you will spot that I have stamp & cut an extra penguin so he moves
around in the snow!

I have used Kraft card blank, flowers, berries, sparkle pin, bark heart, doily, button, ribbon & branches.  The snow is a mix of Flower Soft & Diamond Dust.  Coloured with Promarkers.

The paper is from NITWIT COLLECTIONS
