Summer Fairy
Good morning and Happy Tuesday to you! It's Linda here with my Tuesday inspiration post.
Today I've used Summer Fairy, drawn by the talented Sylvia Zet.
The papers are a mix of 2 different MME pads, links to products can be found at the end of my post as always. The quality of these papers is lovely to work with.
I coloured her with Copics which are think are the best choice for bright colours and decided to get funky with her hair. Her hair is absolutely wonderful to colour up, such fun!
You can find a close up and a list of all the colours used over on my blog
I didn't over embellish as the papers were bright and busy, just a few flowers and some MME brads in the corners. I finished off with a bow from a scrap of ribbon from my scraps box and popped a little Prima bling on the top. The sentiment is from Whimsy and is cut with a matching die. Lastly I added a flurry of tiny butterflies cut with a Memory Box die.
I decorated the inside as usual with papers to complement the front.
Well that's all from me today, don't forget to sign up for my blog candy here if you haven't already, there's just over 2 weeks now till I draw a winner, and I'll see you all next time.
Enjoy your day! : ) x x

Mimosa - Summer Wind
Happy Tuesday everyone! It's DT Linda here. Are you almost ready for Easter? I'm really not lol, I have so much still to do! Anyhoo....on to the reason I'm here. This week I've used one of the sweet little Mimosa stamps from Bildlamarna, and normally I like to colour up these cuties with my Distress Inks, but I thought for change I'd use my copics. I rather like the way she turned out especially her hair. Links to products used are as always at the end of my post.
Colours used
Skin: E11, 00, 000, 0000, R20, 11
Hair: E00, 11, 13, 15, 18
Clothes: RV000, 91, 93, 95, B000, 00, C2, E50, 51, 53
Basket and flowers: B000, 00, RV91, 93, 95, E41, 42, 44
I used these gorgeous papers from Pion, and I believe that they've now been discontinued, so best snap them up from Tracy while you still can...I must admit I'm very sad that I won't be able to get this range in the future as it's one of my favourites. I do hope they plan on replacing it with something similar, because while the A Day in May range is drop dead gorgeous, it doesn't have the range of colours that this collection has. Luckily for me I still have various sheets in my stash. I inked the edges and then sewed them with top stitch thread.
I used some lovely La-La Land and Die-namics die cuts and this rather lush Prima flower, though I was rather mean to it an pulled out the centre and replaced it with one of my rolled rose ones. I finished off with this fab sentiment from Whimsy, cut with a matching die, a little stamp cut from the element sheet to match the papers used, and some liquid pearls.
Well that's all from me for today and I get a bit of a break soon to get ahead with my crafting, and enjoy my holiday
Enjoy your Easter everyone! : ) x x

Lollipop Girl
Happy Tuesday! It's Linda nipping in quick with my DT inspiration, and today I'm using a fabulous fun stamp from Time for Tea, available in rubber by Whimsy Stamps. I only got this through from Tracy on Saturday and I couldn't wait to use her!
Isn't she just too cute?! Love the way her hair mimics her lollipop, so I just had to go ahead and colour a part of it the same. I thought she looked kind of like she belonged at a fairground, so I matched her to these wonderful colourful papers from MME. I must admit that before I started DT'ing for Tracy, I'd never used a single MME paper, but I've become a bit of an MME addict! Particularly any of the Lost and Found collections....yum!
Copic colours are listed on my blog, ....or at least they will be when I find the list under the mess on my desk!
I popped a La-La Land Crafts hot air balloon die cut behind her and decorated it with these sugary sweet Prima Sugardots and popped a couple of mini ticket sentiments on the other side. I kept embellishments simple as I didn't want to cover too much of that lush paper.
The inside is decorated very simply with some of the DP I used on the front and a few more Sugardots. There's lots of space for a message too.
Well that's all from me today folks, but I'll be back here next week with more inspiration. ~Until then, enjoy your week and have fun crafting! :) xx

Treasured Book Card
Happy Tuesday crafters! DT Linda here to share my latest make with you. I was totally adventurous this weekend and had a go at something I'd never tried before and made a book card. It was actually a lot easier than I'd thought it would be. I think I will make more variations on this in future because it was so much fun, and I may even pop a tutorial on my blog in a few weeks when I have a bit of spare time and that will be another first for me!
Anyway on with the project! I made something that you could give a small gift in and that afterwards could be used for storing small 'treasures' or mementos. As usual there are links to products used at the end of the post.
This is what it looks like when you open it up. There's quite a bit of room inside.

Aren't these Maja Vintage Autumn Basics papers gorgeous? This project changed as I was working on it. To start with I was going to have a stamped image mounted on the front, but as I made it more and more book like I decided to stick with mostly die cuts. These are all by Spellbinders apart from the bookplate one which is Whimsy to match the stamp. The garnet coloured ribbon is recycled from some Christmas crackers!

And a view from the 'page' side, with a ribbon fastening to keep it closed. There's more details and pics on my blog here
Well that's all from me today, I hope you liked it, I really enjoyed trying something different, why don't you have a go at something new too, it's lots of fun! :) xx
