For my inspiration card I've gone for Aqua, Red and Ivory, using one of the returning favourite stamps - Sailing Boat. He's coloured in with a combination of Promarkers and Graph'Its and then cut out.

Indian Summer for LOTV Design Collective

Hello peeps, hope you are well. 

We got our Indian Summer at last - it's been lovely and sunny here for the last four days. Yay!

This cutie is called 'Smoke Signal' from Lili of the Valley and I coloured her in with my Graph'It markers.

Skin: 4110, 4115 and 4145

Hair: 3210, 3245 and 3250

Feather/Rug: 9100 and 7160

Dress: 3125,3110, 1270 and 1230

For the background I have used papers from the 'Promises-Solids' (sky), 'Father Knows Best' (rocks and foreground) and 'Antebellum' (desert floor)  8x8 paper pads by Lili of the Valley.

To get the shape of the rocks I traced around the 'Monument' Mask from ClarityStamp.

I have also used 'Sentiments to Fit Scroll' by LOTV, stamped onto clouds cut with Joy Crafts dies.

I would like to enter this in the following challenges:-

Sweet Stampin - Use a non white base

613 Avenue Create - Anything Goes w/optional colour sapphire

Pretty Petal

Hello peeps, hope you are well.

My card today is a twisted easel, made with Petal from Lili of the Valley. She has been coloured in with promarkers and decoupaged (sorry, I can't remember which ones - I coloured her ages ago).

The papers are from the 'Country Lady' and 'Antebellum' 8x8 pads, also from LOTV.

The white flowers were made with the 'Black-eyed Susan' Bigz die from Sizzix and the red ones were created with the Marianne Design Creatables die 'Branch and Flowers 1'

The greenery is pressed/dried leaves. I was dead chuffed to find a freezer bag full of mixed leaves and flowers at a car boot sale for £1, what a bargain :D
