Pinata Luka for Bunny Zoes

Hi everyone well its the weekend.............yayyy ya gotta lurve weekends ;0)
Well I went out to get blinds with no joy, the shop we got the last ones from dont sell them anymore & the other shops didnt have enough in as we need 12 blinds for the conservatory. So I ordered them online & probably saved some money anyway tbh.

Anyway my card today is for Bunny Zoes & I have used one fo the new La La Land Crafts stamps with some yummy coloured paper.
Sorry about the pics they were took this morning in the new craft room, well the half done craft room lol, the worktop is up though so I could take it on there lol.
I've kept the card quite simple, one to let the image stand out & two........well because over half of my craft room was packed away so I had little to work with lol. Good job its a male card so required no foofiness lol.

The gorgeous papers are MME 'Boy Crazy', this pad is lush I love the colours & patterns in it. I machine stitched all the papers. Luckily I made this cards days ago while I still had my sewing machine set up, I just forgot take pics til today lol.

The fabulous stamp is 'Pinata Luka' & he is coloured with copics & I paper pieced his blindfold. I also stamped the hair again & added it after the blindfold so it added dimension & as thoug his hair was coming over the blindfold. Colours used are...........
E11, E21, E00, E000, R32 - Skin
E59, E47, E44, E43, E40 - Hair
B97, B95, B93, B91, B00 - Jeans
E29, E27, E23 - Stick
C5, C3, C1, C00 - Shoes - W3, W1, W0 - Ground
YR27, YR24, YR21, R59, R39, R37, R35 - Jumper, Pinata & Sweets

I have to say I really loved colouring this little fella up. Now this is the first time I've used a La La Land stamp, I've only got digi's (which I sadly neglect) Anyway on the stamps inside the packet is this above, so you can scan it with your phone if you want the list of copic colours used on the sample on the front of the packet. What an awesome idea, its cool!! I havn't done it yet as I've been too busy but I think the idea is just fab!!
The top sentiment is Whimsy 'Friendship Notables 2' from Bunny Zoes, I cant find the link though sorry, I have had these ages. The bottom sentiment came with the stamp as well as 2 other sentiments. The stars I cut out with a die & the button is from my stash.

Well thats it from me I will probably be busy painting now as this is a scheduled post, hubster has been building me a craft table today & I've still got units to paint as well as make valances for all the windows.
Thank you so much for your lovely comments I will try my best have a bloggy hop tonight if I can...........without being too shattered lol.

Tatty bye & hope you all have a fabulous weekend.
HUge hugs to you all

Crafty Little Fairies DT Card

Good morning lovelies how are you all? This is a scheduled post this morning hopefully I'm on my way out to buy new blinds.........providing I'm looking human again lol. These last 3 days have been so busy I've been stuck in decorating clothes, no makeup, no hair done.............yuk, not a sight for anyones eyes lol.
Anyhoo's enough babble let me tell you about the new challenge over at Crafty Little Fairies & this week was one I dont normally enjoy doing...........
ONE FOR THE BOYS
.........although they are getting easier lol. I have of course gone with the ones who make the best boys images around..........
...........yes of course its LOTV, I lurve their male images, well you gotta love all their images dont you!!

The button, twine & seam binding are from my stash.

The gorgeous papers are MME 'Lost & Found Breeze', I absolutely lurve this paper pad.

 This stamp is called 'Gone Fishing', this always makes me think of hubster & Arjay when he is older going fishing with his grandad. He has of course been coloured with copics....... will add colours soon...
The banners at the bottom were scraps left over & I turned one upside down as I thought it then looked like a yacht instead of a flag.

All the papers have been machine stitched & inside decorated as always. I added a button on the corner from my stash.

Well thats it form me why not pop on over to see my fabulous teamies creations, they do Boys so well!!

I will be round as soon as I have some time, I moved most of my things into my new craft room yesterday..............however I've now got unpack & sort everything out. I also still have painting to do. I am getting sooooooooo excited though now & cant wait to be in there.
Will show pics when its done, I may even do a video eventually lol.

The gorgeous laces are both from LLC, the top one is  'Maya Road Organza Flowers' & I've added pink beads to each flower. The bottom one I cant remember the name :0(

I have used 'Tilda With Cosy Heart' & sat her inside of Marianne D 'Window', I love this die, I cut up between the windows to have them open. I added 'Madeleine' lace to each window as a net curtain ;0)
