Couple of new cards.

Having been busy on and off with DT work I decided to have a play for myself today! Although ran out of time before I wanted to stop! 

Anyway first card I have used my lovely Ruby Fairy from Ladybug Crafts Ink, she is my first and most special LCI stamp and I just love how she looks so pretty in pretty much any colour! If you want your very own Ruby then you can get her here


You can't see the glitter from this picture, but I used glutter on her wings, the butterfly in her hair and also on the ladybug on the log! I love this image! 




Then onto my next card, I coloured this image last night about 2am!! but quite like this card. 
I would like to enter this card into Fifi's MSE Black and White challenge! She loves the toon and what better way to enter this challenge that to use Black & White stripes just like the Toon (Howay the Lads!)




As always I used glossy accents on the honey.

Everything is from my stash, the papers are Papermania and this is paper from my first ever pad I bought!!  The stamp I had to buy, Although I put the blame fully onto the lovely Sarah (aka Rainmac) as she set me off with this stamp! The little flowers are from my stash but the black bead shaped flowers are from the lovely Melissa in a recent stash swap! 

Hope you like them both, can't share the 3rd one as it is DT work

Oooo fabby Ladybug card Tams, the image is lovely. I love how you have done the flowers too. The black and white card is great and again the flowers are really pretty. Brilliant matting and layering xx

You know that purple/lilac is ALMOST pink Tams??!! Daydreaming Ruby is my fave too but we can't tell the others lol. Flowers look great on both cards but especially like the white/cream with black spots. x

The lilac is lovely and soft, and gorgeous with the spotty ribbon and gems. Love the black and white with the splash of yellow, very effective. Hate when you can't get to finish when you want rather than when you have to!!

Both cards are gorgeous, Tams. Daydreaming Ruby is so pretty with the butterfly, flowers and glitter on her wings. The second card is adorable too. Love the glaze on the honey and those flowers are so pretty.
