Arwyn's 10th birthday

Yesterday was my beautiful nieces 10th birthday.  I can't believe how fast the time as gone.
I made her a card using one of my favourite stamps, Butterfly Marci from La La Land Crafts.
I also used a selection of La La Land Craft dies.  The papers are from Clarity 'sweet dreams'.
Isn't she just gorgeous!  I used my new Spectrum Noir illustrator and bullet nib pens to colour her up and then finished off with a hint of colourblend pencil.

Illustrator colours used
FS7, FS8, MB1, IG2, PD1, HB1, DP2, LV3, LV1 and PP1

Bullet nib pens
EB1, EB2, MB1, AP1

Colourblend pencils
Maple, Boysenberry, Vivid Pink and Rose Peach

Here is Arwyn with her card and her Lady Ga Ga Monster High doll which we gave her.  I have one very happy niece!

La La Land Crafts DT application photos

As some of you are aware La La Land Crafts are having a design team call and I am a MASSIVE La La Land fan so quite frankly I HAVE to apply!
With this being a brand spanking new blog I thought it would be the best idea to add my favourite makes here for the application.







Keep everything crossed for me!

Welcome to my new blog!

HELLO!
I'm back...... again....
Welcome to More Cuttings from the Craft Room Floor.
Here I plan to share with you all my crafty makes, exciting news and quite possibly lots of moaning moments as well!
