Gilli's Ready for a Party!!!

Hi!  Have you seen all the lovely Gilli cards with swirls, pearls and lace?!  Come and join us and you will get a chance to win a Gilli goodie!!!  I've colored Balloon Gilli with Copics and added a bit of lace to her dress (which I also colored with Copics).  I added some little tiny pearls to the neckline of her dress, and then I added some glitter to the swirls on the paper.  Here's a look at my card:

Balloon Gilli is a pleasure to color, and I was easily able to cut around the image.  Can't wait to see lots of swirl, pearl and lace cards!!!  Thanks for stopping by, Ann  :)

Pearls, Swirls & Lace... so heavenly....

Hi everyone... Tina again!!  Hope you are enjoying the challenges because we have yet another and I have to say... what girlie girl can avoid pearls and swirls and lace??? Not me!!

Today I used Gilli Angel for my card.. I LOVE coloring her with all her folds and long hair and those fabulous wings!! I suspect if I didn't control myself she'd be done in EVERY Copic color I have (umm yeah.. that's ALL of them! Hee Hee).

I did use one of the newest Copic colors on my angel.. BG57, Jasper... it's the darkest one on her dress.  I soooo love it!! I can't wait to use all the new colors they are so yummy!!

I used my Cuttlebug Polka Dots embossing folder on my card base before I punched the border.  My image was colored and cut out and mounted with Pop Dots to add more dimension.  The inside of my card also has a white layer which I punched to match the outside of my card cover and add a bit more layering to the card.  I used my Spellbinders Fancy Tags 2 to stamp my sentiment on and then sponged on some pink Memento ink before removing the die.

I can't wait to see all the awesome pearls, swirls and lace cards you create!!  Have a great day and thanks for looking!  *HUGS

Pearls, Swirls and Lace OH My!

Hello Everyone,

Jo here today. Wow can you believe Valentine’s Day has come and went. Did you have any special plans? Dinner with your sweetie maybe? How about getting a box of Chocolates?

My card today is using Gilli Classy. She is all dress up ready to go to a nice belated Valentines dinner and a show afterwards. She has her new outfit on today. It is a gray-purple color. She liked the look of the clean lines with that hint of purple.

I have used my new Cherry Lynn Doily die. The swirl is cut using my Slice.

I added a few ivory pearls and ivory seam binding. Also added a glitter heart from Making Memories. I have made this as a mini card that could be attached to a box of candy or a bottle of bubbly for that someone special on Valentine’s Day or birthday.

I hope you will join in on our Pearl, Swirls and Lace challenge . We can’t wait to see what you might have in store for our viewing pleasure.
