I coloured this cute little snail image with copic markers and this stamp is from the Valentine range at hookedoncraft called V-0011 Love Bugs. The sentiment is from the words & phrases range at Hookedoncraft called W-0003 love.
I used some rose pink mesh ribbon from hookedoncraft and can be found here
The paper lace doylie can also be found at hookedoncraft here and i also spritzed it with glimmer mist to add some colour and sparkle.


Here is a close up of the butterfly which was white and then I spritzed it with 2 different glimmer mists and added some bling and stickles to the edges. You can purchase these here


And here is a close up of the awesome flowers at hookedoncraft which can be found here


I added some stickles to the edges of the flowers and a decorative trinket pin that I made. Keep an eye out for future blog posts as i will let you know where you can buy these very pretty pins for your own crafts.

Sweet Hearts wedding cards

I made these wedding cards and I thought I should share them with you.





I cut the bride and groom at 10cm from the Sweet hearts cricut cartridge. I embossed the wedding dress using my cuttlebug. I ended up colouring the ribbon and green flower stem with copic markers as it was just too fiddly to cut them out of separate paper. I used flower soft for the bouquet which I think looks awesome. I also gave the bride a mini veil and put a flower in her hair. I also used stickles on the edge of her veil. I used a Martha Stewart punch and decorated with bling.
I hope the lucky couple appreciate the effort involved!
