Haley & Harley by Saturated Canary

Hello my lovelies how are you all?
I made this card last night & made it using one of the lovely Krista's images & this one is one I actually brought from the beginning I think........its one of my early ones & I finally got her coloured.
I love these colours together & I think I could have another fave colour combo.......yep all my faves contain brown lol.

The papers I forgot I had & they were at the bottom of my Prima drawer they are 'Alla Prima' & I think I got them from Crafty Emma's Store. Iedged the edges with vintage photo & matted onto kraft.

The gorgeous image is of course from Saturated Canary & its called 'Haley & Harley' isn't she just soooooo darn pretty, she is one of the ragamuffins & I have to say that these are becoming my fave I just adore their faces.........& isn't that wee little piggy so cute!!

The green paper roses are from my stash & the middle rose & the flat paper flowers underneath are from WOC.....the white paper flowers I only recently found they were still sealed in the packet, I think they are from WOC anyway lol. Mint coloured ribbon is from a shop off ebay, the sentiment is a wooden stamp off my shelf & the muslin is off a giant roll I have............I mean GIANT its at least 20 metres long & 3 metres wide & I have 2 rolls of it which I brought about 2 years ago for a project I never did......lol.
The gorgeous resin flower & pearls are from My Crafty Heart

Sorry about the pics they were took in a rush tonight. I've had Megan & Ben over for tea & we've got Payton-Lea overnight as mummy & daddy are not well so they are trying to get some much needed rest.
I have to say tho we are soooooooo enjoying having her stay & I get to finally use the travel cot I brought her lol.
Well I'm off do some more hopping before she wakes for her next feed, I'm running so behind, sorry my lovelies but I will catch up with you all.
Thank you soooooo much for stopping by big hugs to you all mmwah xoxoxox

Grow A Little Love with Tiddly Inks

Hello my lovelies how are you all? I thought I would pop this card on I made about a week ago just for fun with one of the new images from Tiddly Inks. The Wryn & Friends collection is just sooooooooo cute!!
However I'm not happy with this card it was a quickie at the time & I even coloured the image very basic, but I will show you it anyway until I figure out if I will strip it & throw it...
This is 'Grow A Little Love' isn't she just so sweet & cute.

The gorgeous flower & pin are from My Crafty Heart as are the 'Tiara' Stickles I used on the 

I glittered everything up with 'Stardust' stickles cus this sweetie deserves her glitter.

I havnt even decorated inside yet cus if I'm not happy with a card I wont give it or sell it to anyone so I'm waiting til I decide.
The papers are an old pad 8x8 'Hanoverian' have no idea where its from I've had it a while & rarely used it. The lace is from a shop off ebay. 

I think thats it my grand-daughter is here so I'm gonna go for lots of snuggles lol but will be round to catch up with everyone shortly.
Thank you sooooooooooooooooo much for the lovely comments about my GDT for Krista I'm still smiling & sooooooooooo proud...
