Noor Design UK DT Card - Friendship

Hi everyone I'm here today with a bit of inspiration using fabulous products from Noor Design UK.

Would you believe I've gone all CAS today..........think I must be sickening for something lol. Now I lurve my foofy cards but I also love CAS cards.........well I love everyone else's CAS cards lol. For me these take just as long as my foofy cards lol.

However this one I have to say all fell into place & it started off with a Dutch Doobadoo Template & a Little Darlings Embossing Folder....

So I made a CAS card & a Matching Envelope. Links to products used will be at the bottom.

I've used a Scrapiniec Chipboard frame for around my image. I painted it first with white gesso then added Shabby Blue Fran-tage to it.

The embossing folder used is Little Darlings Gilded Embossing Folder & in this set you get 2 embossing folders......... 1 embosses all over, like what I've done for the back of the card & the other folder embosses & leaves a blank oval space in the centre, which is what I've used for the front of the card & for the envelope......this is ideal for writing on.....or as I've done on the card placing my image on.

Inisde the card I've used a fabulous sentiment set from Little Darlings called 'Best Friends', this is a fabulous set, you get 12 stamps including these little scroll pattern stamps which I think are perfect for adding that finishing touch.

For the blue colour I just used the same distress ink marker that I used on the image which was Evergreen Bough & then coloured the stamp.......ideal if you dont have that colour ink pad.

The image is a rubber stamp again by Little Darlings Saturated Canary 'Sweatshirt Saturday' I lurve this stamp its one of my favourites. She has been stamped onto Fabriano Artistico paper which Tracy now stocks........this paper is AWESOME for your watercolours.

I've used Distress markers, ink pads & refills.

For the envelope I used the Dutch Doobadoo Envelope Art A4 Scallop 2. I also added 2 layers of card, 1 in a co-ordinating colour to the image & the other for embossing. I've used the same Little Darlings sentiment set. I've also added the Swirl Leaf die & a few flowers, the smaller ones are OWC flowers which Tracy now stocks over at Noor Design UK & more is due in soon.

Thats it from me, thank you for stopping by.

Lotsa hugs Vicky xxx

With Love On Your Wedding

Hi everyone I'm here today with a Wedding Card in a shabby chic kinda style.........oooh I lurve shabby chic ;-) It's my DT Card for Noor Design Uk.

So over the weekend I finally got chance to play with my DT Kit that Tracy sent us.......OMWord I am going to start with the papers I've used on this card. Now let me start by saying I truly adore Maja Design papers & nothing else compared........that was however until I got my hands on these gorgeous Craft & You papers. The quality is fantastic & they are excellent value for money. I loved them that much that instead of getting the latest Maja Design release I went over to Tracy's shop & ordered LOTS of paper.......I love paper but I'm fussy............these are beautiful papers at a fraction of the cost.....

Anyway I better show you my card lol.

All links are at the bottom of the post. Tracy is now stocking WOC flowers, she has a few on her website but there are more to come soon. The papers are Crafts & You 'My Wedding'........although these can be used for much more than weddings.

I've inked the edges with Pumice Stone distress ink & added gesso in places as well.

The honeycomb shaped chipboard is Scrapiniec & has been painted with white gesso. Tracy will have this in stock soon........ I love this honeycomb bit, it adds that extra bit of something.

In the top right corner I added a Scrapiniec Corner chipboard, I painted it with white gesso & added dots of pearl with a White Pearl Pen.

These chipboard shapes from Scrapiniec are awesome & want them all.........eventually lol.

This chipboard was in a set & you get 5 pieces of chipboard altogether including 2 frames.

So the lovely kissing couple I fussy cut out from the 'My Wedding' sheet 07, I added white gesso & some dots with the Pearl Pen for their eyes. I also fussy cut out that backing the sentiment is on then placed that onto the Oval die.

I also placed CheeseCloth underneath the oval die.

The sentiment is LOTV.

Again from sheet 07 I cut out one of the circles & turned it into a cabochon adding the cabochon cover which is from my stash. I added another Scrapiniec chipboard, the hearts on the arrow which Tracy will be adding to Noor Design Uk very soon.

As I've covered up the paper I thought I would show you just how pretty it is so I've took a photo of the inside before I add a place to write a message. Isn't it just so pretty, trust me the photo's dont do this paper justice.

At the side I fussy cut yet again from sheet 07 half a doily & placed it between the two layers of paper & added pearl dots. I also cut out the small butterfly from the sheet & there are still loads left to cut out.........its brilliant!!

The rolled roses I used the die shown below & sheet 03, I inked them & added a little bit of gesso. The leaves are also a new die from Crafts & You & cuts perfectly everytime.

Well thats it form me, why not pop on over to see what new items Tracy has added & also what is due in very soon ;-) Lots of yummy things including the new Whimsy stamps........I've ordered some of those, they are sooooo darn cute!!

Thanks for stopping by, take care.

Lotsa hugs Vicky xxx

Noor Design UK DT Card

Hellooooo everyone, how are you all?

Well I hope this has published as its scheduled to as I'm away with hubster for a lovely cosy break in the caravan......3 days of doing nothing.....well almost nothing, still gotta cook brekkie every morning.......you cant go away without a full english every morning ;-)

Anyhoo's I'm here today with my DT card for Noor Design UK & today I've used 2 stamps from Magnolia's latest release Spring Fever....

All links will be at the bottom.

I've used a softer pad with shades of pale blues & greys. Its actually called 'Condolence' but most paper can be used for a variety of occasions.

I've inked the edges with Pumice Stone distress ink.

 For the second layer of paper I used Shape Art Ornate & made a new shape with it, hopefully you can see in the pictures what I've done. The shape art was too big for this size square card so this is why I used the stencil to make my own..........another fab used for these shape arts ;-)
Below is the shape I made.

 The Magnolia stamps used are 'Bee Tilda' & 'Tilda's Laundry', both images have been coloured with Distress Ink Markers & Ink Refills & pads.

I fussy cut Bee Tilda out to place at the side. I also added Stardust Stickles to parts of the clothes on the washing line ;-)

I backed the Laundry image onto Kraft card then placed that onto the Joy Crafts 'Square Frame' die.

Used my favourite Swirl Leaf die & a couple of leaves from the Joy Crafts 0331 die & of course some flowers.

Well thats it from me. Pop on over to Noor Design Uk Tracy has fabulous new items in her store & there is more to come........watch this space as they say ;-)

Take care lovelies, hope you have a lovely week.
Thanks for stopping by.
Lotsa hugs Vicky xxxxx
