Polkadoodles Odella Heart

Good morning lovely crafty peeps.  Jeez what an end to my week last week everything that could go pear shaped went pear shaped lol.  Add to that my daughter choosing her GSCE options for the next two years and my son sitting A Level mocks, what a flippin week lol!  I'm sincerely hoping this next one is a little easier on us.  So here I am today popping in quickly to share some Polkadoodles love with you.  This is my DT make, albeit a few days late oops!!

So this week the DT were challenged to make something which included a secret surprise.  Well it took me ages to decide on what I wanted to create but eventually settled on an easel card and if you lift up the base it includes a secret little treat box which you can fill with a sweet surprise for someone.  

I went with a heart theme seeing as Valentine's isn't far off and coloured up the adorable Odella Heart with copics to compliment the pretty Polkadoodles papers.  I actually used a Polkadoodles heart shaped template to get my shaped card.  There's a few more piccies for this one as it was difficult to try and get a view of everything so I apologise now for the photo heavy post.

A piccie up next of the easel card stood up.

A little side view and if you look carefully you can just make out the box underneath.

If you lift the card base up you reveal the hidden treat box filled with yummy Elizabeth Shaw mints in my case lol.

Last piccie up next I promise!  Here's a closer look at the sweet Odella Heart, just fab isn't she.

Showered with Love

Happy Monday lovely crafty peeps.  I seem to be getting behind with my blogging of late I have a few crafty makes to share with you so today I shall be sharing a little LOTV loveliness.

I grabbed a couple of the newly released Lili of the Valley images the other day and I couldn't resist colouring up this one first.  This is 'Showered with Love' and I've used my Prismacolor pencils for a change.  Not really sure I'm happy with my colouring on this one so lots more practice is needed with the pencils I think.

Anyway, I thought the image would make a perfect valentine's card and I've had these gorgeous papers in my stash for like forever and they just went so well together.  A little ribbon and few pearls and it all came together so easy.

A little close up of the adorable image.  What is it about umbrellas I always love an image with a brolly in it lol, but aren't they just the cutest pair though!

Okay a really quick fly by from me today peeps.  I haven't even got a note for you of the pencils I used.  I did have them written down on a scrap of paper but if you could see my craft room right now you would understand why I can't find it lol!  A job for another day though that one.

So take care folks.  As I said I've got a few more cards to share so I shall be popping in again soon.

Happy crafting.
